Adult Entertainment Laws in Georgia
Legal Overview
In Georgia prostitution is an administrative offence: Article 172³ of the Code of Administrative Offences provides for a warning or a fine of up to half the minimum wage unit, and up to one unit for a repeat within a year, with trafficking victims and people drawn in by the crime of involvement in prostitution exempt. Buying is not expressly penalised. The Criminal Code punishes persuading a person into prostitution or other non-violent facilitation (fine or up to two years), providing a place or dwelling for prostitution (fine or two to four years) and involving a person by threats, blackmail, deceit or violence (two to twenty years depending on aggravation). On 2 April 2026 the Constitutional Court rejected a sex worker's challenge to Article 172³ brought in 2018.

In Practice
No provision bans adverts for sexual services. The Law on Advertising restricts 'sex-related products' (no radio or television advertising, nor on newspaper front pages and magazine covers) but does not mention prostitution. The Interior Ministry says an offer made through a website can fall under the Article 172³ offence, though it has no such practice; a third party placing adverts could fall under Article 254(1) of the Criminal Code. Directories may not list escort services here: a site that carries other people's ads can be prosecuted or fined.
