Georgian Civil & Archive Documents — Obtained for You

What you get

  • Marriage, birth, death or divorce certificate from Georgia
  • Current records or older, archived ones — we find the right source
  • Certified translation and apostille for use abroad
  • Handled remotely — by power of attorney

Civil-status documents — certificates of marriage, birth, death and divorce — are among the papers people most often need from Georgia when dealing with authorities at home or in a third country. Recent records are held by Georgia’s civil registry; older and Soviet-era records are kept in the national archives. We locate the right source, obtain the certificate, and prepare it for use abroad.

On its own, a Georgian certificate is issued in Georgian and rarely enough for another country — it usually needs a certified translation and an apostille. We take care of the whole chain so you receive a document that is ready to use, whether you are still in Georgia or already abroad.

How to get a marriage certificate from Georgia

A Georgian marriage certificate confirms a marriage that was registered in Georgia. You may need it to prove your marital status abroad, to change a name, for a spouse’s residence or visa application, or for pension, inheritance and family procedures. We obtain the certificate — a current copy from the civil registry, or an archival one if the marriage was registered long ago — and, for use abroad, add a certified translation and an apostille.


Birth certificate from Georgia

A Georgian birth certificate is one of the most requested documents — for citizenship and passport applications, school enrolment, residence permits, inheritance and countless official procedures abroad. Whether you were born recently or decades ago, we trace the record in the civil registry or the archives, obtain the certificate, and prepare it with a certified translation and apostille for the country where you need it.


Death certificate from Georgia

A Georgian death certificate is needed for inheritance and probate, closing accounts, pension and insurance matters, and civil procedures both in Georgia and abroad. We obtain the certificate on behalf of a family member or authorised person — from the civil registry for recent records, or from the archives for older ones — and add the certified translation and apostille required for use in another country.


Older and Soviet-era records — from the archives

Not every record is in the current civil registry. Civil-status records going back many decades — including the Soviet period — are held in Georgia’s national archives, and obtaining a certificate from them is a different process: the record has to be located in the archival holdings first, and access can require proof of kinship or a justified request. This is exactly where most people get stuck. We know which source holds which record, make the right request, and turn the result into a translated, apostilled document you can actually use.


Company and registry extracts

Beyond civil-status records, we also obtain official extracts from Georgia’s business (entrepreneurial) registry — confirming a company’s name, legal form, address, owners and directors — which banks, tenders and foreign authorities routinely ask for. We get a fresh extract, translate it and apostille it, remotely by power of attorney. See our full guide to the apostilled company extract.

Need a Georgian Certificate Without the Hassle?

We locate it, obtain it, translate it and apostille it — remotely if you are already abroad


How it works

  1. We identify the record — which certificate you need and whether it sits in the current civil registry or the archives.
  2. We request the certificate from the relevant Georgian authority — in person or, if you are abroad, through a representative under a power of attorney.
  3. We arrange a certified translation into English or the language you need.
  4. We obtain the apostille so the certificate is recognised in Hague Convention countries (or legalisation where the destination is outside the Convention), and deliver the finished document to you.

Doing it remotely, and what to prepare

You do not need to be in Georgia. With a power of attorney, our representative can locate the record, request the certificate, arrange the translation and file for the apostille on your behalf, then send you the finished document. This is the usual route for people who have already left the country, or who never lived there but need a relative’s record.

To start, it helps to tell us the person’s full name and the approximate date and place of the event (marriage, birth or death), together with your own ID and, for archival or family records, how you are related. That, plus the country and purpose the certificate is for, decides the translation language and whether you need an apostille or legalisation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you obtain a Georgian certificate if I am abroad?

Yes. With a power of attorney, a representative can locate the record, request the certificate, arrange a certified translation and obtain the apostille on your behalf, then send you the finished document — no need to travel to Georgia.

What if the record is old or from the Soviet period?

Older civil-status records are usually kept in the national archives rather than the current civil registry. We locate the record in the archival holdings and obtain an archival certificate; for family records this can require proof of kinship or a justified request, which we help prepare.

Can the certificate be apostilled and translated for use abroad?

Yes — this is the most common request. The certificate is issued in Georgian; we add a certified translation into your language and an apostille so it is accepted in Hague Convention countries (or legalisation for non-Convention countries).

Can I request a relative’s certificate?

Often yes, especially for a birth, marriage or death certificate needed for inheritance or family matters. Requirements depend on the record and your relationship — tell us the details and we will confirm what is possible and what proof is needed.
