The National Statistics Office of Georgia started the Population and Agricultural Census from October 14. The Population Census is conducted once in 10 years in the country.The data collection process will continue until December 19.
The census includes 2 stages:
In the first stage, from November 14-23, the data will be collected by the self-registration method (CAWI). Self-registration is a data collection method where respondents fill out questionnaires electronically themselves, without interviewers, via a computer/tablet/smartphone, using a standard internet browser. Using this method is convenient for respondents who do not want interviewer's visit at home or do not have enough time for a face-to-face interview.
To complete the online questionnaire, respodents must complete a simple registration on a special web platform integrated on the Geostat website: https://census2024.geostat.ge/en/ After completing the electronic questionnaire, a special electronic code will be assigned, which must be presented to the Geostat interviewer when they visit them.
In the second stage, from November 29 to December 19, the data will be collected by approximately 12 000 Geostat interviewers through door-to-door method, using tablets.
The Agricultural Census will be carried out together with the Population Census in 2024. Thus, along with the socio-demographic data,the information on households’ agricultural activities will be collected through a special questionnaire. In particular, this will include data on the structure of land used by households, the number of livestock and poultry, and other important information at the level of municipalities, territorial units, and villages.
All citizens of Georgia, as well as all citizens of foreign countries (who plan to stay in Georgia for more than 12 months) and stateless persons (who plan to stay in Georgia for more than 12 months) living in the territory of Georgia, are obliged to participate in the census.
According to Articles 34 and 35 of the Law of Georgia "On Official Statistics", individual data are confidential and not subject to disclosure. Individual data about the respondent is stored in the manner established by the current legislation of Georgia.
As part of the Census, accurate and up-to-date data will be available on population size, age and sex structure, various demographic and socio-economic characteristics, as well as on the agricultural activity of households at the level of self-governing units and settlements.
The preliminary results of the census will be published in June 2025, and the final results following- in June 2026.
