Individuals we deported came from Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Russia, Pakistan, Jordan, Armenia,Thailand,Tajikistan, Egypt, India, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Nigeria, Sudan, Uganda, the Philippines,China,Iraq and elsewhere.
According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs , the 91 people were sent home from Georgia in accordance with measures that have been implemented in accordance with Georgia’s immigration laws.Officials refused to reveal the reasons for each person’s return.
Under Georgian law, the persons deported have been denied readmission. Those persons will not be able to enter Georgia within the period for which they are denied entry.
The new deportation has taken place as the government has continually pressed for stronger action to combat illegal migration and to make sure illegal aliens are respecting immigration laws.
The ministry says more than 37,00 foreigners have been expelled from Georgia this year. This means the authorities have not eased the crackdown against illegal residents.
Foreigners from across the globe arrive in Georgia to work, do business, learn and relax.
The Migration Department is responsible for checking the legality of all foreign residents in Georgia, and undertake necessary actions in case of violation.
The ministry has launched these types of operations together with other agencies to locate and expel individuals who are under threat of being deported from Georgian soil.
There’s been no information disclosed about the newest cases or how many more are awaiting deportation. However, the fact that 91 foreigners were deported , along with more than 3,700 foreigners over the course of this year, shows that Georgia is still conforming to its immigration law.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs will monitor the movement of foreigners as well as foreigners’ stay in the country.
