Justice Ministry Creates Application to Monitor Georgians' Stay in EU
The Public Services Development Agency, under Georgia’s Ministry of Justice, has created a Schengen/EU App for Georgian citizens to monitor their stay in Schengen states.
Georgia’s Foreign Ministry will manage the application, which will help Georgian citizens who enjoy the benefits of visa-free travel within the EU, to calculate their period of stay in the Schengen / EU zone, and not exceed the permitted 90-day stay in any 180-day period.
The Public Services Development Agency says the application is easy to download and enables the users to:
- Keep their history of traveling in the Schengen zone.
- Count the number of remaining days
- Share information depicting specific travel or travel history on social networks.
The app was created with the help of the Georgian Foreign Ministry, the EU and the International Centre for Migration Policy Development.
