Why Lebanese couples choose Georgia for their wedding
Georgia has long been among the top destinations for wedding tourism for couples from around the world, including those from Lebanon. The country offers numerous advantages for foreigners looking to get married, and for Lebanese citizens, there are at least two key aspects that make arranging a legal marriage in Georgia especially convenient and appealing.
No visa or long waiting times
One of the main advantages of weddings for Lebanese citizens in Georgia is the ability to enter the country without a visa and start the legal marriage process almost immediately. Minimal bureaucracy and fast procedures make wedding preparations simple, smooth, and enjoyable.
Legal marriage recognized internationally
Georgian law allows couples to enter into a legal marriage recognized in Lebanon. This means your wedding will be officially acknowledged in your home country or country of residence, and you will be able to register it with any international marriage authorities without any issues. In this way, Georgia provides the perfect conditions for foreigners to get married easily, legally, and without complications.

Legal wedding process for Lebanese citizens
Organizing a legal wedding in Georgia for couples from Lebanon is straightforward and transparent. The procedures are designed to minimize bureaucracy, making a fast marriage for Lebanese citizens an accessible and comfortable option.
Required documents for Lebanese nationals
For the official registration of a marriage, Lebanese need only a valid passport – this is the only mandatory document. In some cases, if you or your partner have been previously married, you will also need a divorce certificate or a death certificate of a former spouse. That’s the complete set of required documents. To be accepted by the Georgian civil registry, these documents must be translated into Georgian and certified by a notary public. You can handle this yourself or rely on the services of our agency, which guides you through the entire process and ensures that all paperwork is completed correctly and without delays.
Apostille and translation of marriage certificate
A legal wedding in Georgia for Lebanese is a reality, and your marriage certificate will be recognized anywhere in the world. To make this possible, proper legalization of the certificate is required. If you live in a country that is a signatory to the Hague Convention – such as France, the USA, Canada, Poland, the UK, or Germany – the marriage certificate must be translated into the official language of that country and apostilled. You can handle this yourself or turn to our agency for support. We provide full assistance throughout the process and can prepare all documents with an apostille in just one day, allowing you to enjoy your wedding with peace of mind and confidently use your certificate at home.
Embassy legalization (if needed)
If you plan to use your marriage certificate in Lebanon or in other countries that are not members of the Hague Convention, such as the UAE or Qatar, it must go through consular legalization via the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This process is more complex but is essential for the official recognition of your marriage. Our agency provides full support for consular legalization, and the entire process takes approximately 8 to 11 days, saving you time and ensuring that all documents are correctly prepared.
