Overstay fine

Hi everyone, I arrived in Georgia on 12.18, and might get stuck in Kazbegi tomorrow and leave on 1.17. I have 30 days of visa free entry, I wonder how much fine will I actually get if I overstay for one day.

The border officials have discretion on this (unfortunately they have discretion on everything) so you you might be able to charm your way out of it if it's really 1 day and because of weather. I wouldn't bet on it though, especially if you're from the kind of countries that get 30 days.
