    5. The following individuals do not require a visa for transit movement in Georgia: a) passengers of an aircraft crossing Georgia without interim landing at a Georgian airport; provided a permit for crossing Georgia’s air space has been obtained in advance; b) members of a crew of an international airline, railway, or marine transport and stopover passengers, provided the passengers have a document evidencing the right to enter their country of destination and their period of stay in Georgia does not exceed 10 days.

Can the traveller remain airside, and under what circumstances must immigration control be crossed?

What maximum transit period, overnight, airport-change or multiple-stop rules matter?

A transit visa covers transit through Georgia for 10 days to enter a third country; if transit is involuntarily delayed beyond 10 days (natural phenomena, transport repairs or accidents, delays in changing transport), the obligation to leave can be deferred. The official source does not state overnight or airport-change rules.

If permission is required, what permission is it, where/how is it obtained, and what core onward-travel evidence is required?
