Georgia and Cyprus have agreed to form a cooperative marine committee, according to Georgia's Ministry of Economy.

Head of the Georgian Maritime Transport Agency Tamar Ioseliani met with Cyprus' Deputy Minister of Shipping Vassilios Demetriades earlier to discuss ways to improve maritime cooperation between the two countries.

Ioseliani also visited with members of the Cyprus Shipping Chamber and Columbia Ship Management, one of the major shipowners in the country, which employs Georgian seamen.

The parties reviewed concerns that need to be addressed in the marine sector during the coronavirus epidemic, as well as Georgia's excellent outcomes in terms of rotation and vaccination of Georgian sailors.

The Georgian Ministry of Economy stated that the Georgian side is interested in learning from Cyprus' experience in developing a marine cluster and exploring the possibility of extending partnerships in the fields of maritime education, research, and innovation.

The parties emphasised Georgia's significant structural improvements in the fields of maritime education, certification, and ports during the previous decade.

Foreign ties between Cyprus and Georgia are known as Cypriot–Georgian relations. Cyprus recognised Georgia's independence in December 1991, following the breakup of the Soviet Union. The two nations signed a formal Protocol on the Establishment of Diplomatic Ties in 1992, and relations were established on July 9, 1993. Cyprus has an embassy in Athens, Greece, which represents the country in Georgia. Georgia established an embassy in Nicosia in 2005, and Vladimir Konstindinidi, the current ambassador, submitted his credentials in 2009.

On November 22, 1998, the two nations inked a trade deal that entered into effect. Both countries are full members of the Council of Europe, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and the World Trade Organization.
