Georgia country brief

Key engagement

Support for Georgia's sovereignty and territorial integrity, cooperation in international organisations.

Bilateral relations

Australia established diplomatic relations with Georgia in 1992. We share a constructive bilateral relationship. Australia supports Georgia's sovereignty and territorial integrity, including support for its resolutions in international organisations.

Georgia has an Embassy in Australia, while Australia's Ambassador to Türkiye has non-resident accreditation to Georgia. Parliamentary engagement is supported through a Georgia country group in the Australian parliament and an Australian country group in the parliament of Georgia.

Australia and Georgia cooperate in international organisations on issues of mutual interest. We were part of the Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan and are members of the Global Coalition against Daesh.

One of the strongest cultural links is the Georgian-Australian Investigations in Archaeology project, a collaboration between the University of Melbourne and the Georgian National Museum, running since 2008.
