If you're under 18 and apply for the Georgian e-visa: a photo with only you in it
The Georgian e-Visa portal's FAQ says a parent or guardian cannot appear in a child's photo. The child must be the only person in it, and nothing used to support the child, such as a parent's arms or hands, should be in the frame.

If you're under 18 and apply for the Georgian e-visa: your own passport and your own application
The Georgian e-Visa portal's FAQ says that a child included in a parent's passport still needs a separate passport (travel document) and a separate e-visa. It says every traveler, whatever their age, should use their own passport and get their own e-visa.

If you're under 18 and apply at a Georgian embassy or consulate: written consent from your parents or legal representatives
Georgia's visa procedures (Government of Georgia Ordinance No 280) say that to issue a visa to a minor, the consent of the minor's legal representatives must be submitted to the visa-issuing authority, on top of the other documents. The consent must be notarised, or written in front of a consular official or an authorised person of the Consular Department. If a parent has died, is missing or has lost parental rights, a document showing that must be submitted instead. The same procedures say this document list does not apply to short-term e-visas. Ask the Georgian embassy or consulate handling your application what it wants for a child.
Proof of ties to your home country
RequiredEvidence you're expected back home, property, family, or a job.
