TL;DR
Georgian Post handles both domestic and international shipments from Tbilisi. Rates vary by weight and destination — check the post office for exact prices. Passport details of sender and recipient are typically required.
The cost of sending 1 kg from Tbilisi to the USA via Georgian Post depends on the service type (standard parcel, EMS, etc.). It's best to weigh your package and check current rates directly at a post office branch or on the Georgian Post website.
Sending a domestic parcel within Georgia (e.g. from Tbilisi to a village) via Georgian Post requires passport details of both sender and recipient. Packaging in a box is mandatory for parcels around 5 kg — this is a standard requirement.
For sending a laptop or electronics to Georgia from abroad, international courier services like DHL, FedEx, or UPS are more reliable than standard post. They offer tracking and insurance, which is important for fragile or valuable items.
