Georgiens riksvapen antogs den 1 oktober 2004. Det är delvis baserat på den kungliga vapenskölden från medeltiden som tillhörde kungafamiljen Bagrationi.

Riksvapnet består av två lejon som bär skölden. På den röda skölden framstår Georgiens skyddshelgon, sankt Göran, som dräper en drake. Skölden kröns av Georgiens kungakrona.

Landets motto står skrivet på skriften under skölden. Mottot lyder: ”Styrkan ligger i enigheten” (georgiska: ძალა ერთობაშია, dzala ertobasjia).

COA of House of Mukhrani. In the arms of the Mukhrani branch of the family, the shield is quartered by the cross, depicting: in the first quarter, the harp and the sling, attributes of the biblical King David from whom the dynasty claimed their descent; in the second, the crossed sword and scepter crowned with the globus cruciger; in the third, a pair of scales, symbolizing King Solomon; and in the fourth, mounted Saint George, patron saint of Georgia, with a lance slaying a dragon. An escutcheon shows the seamless robe of Jesus, representing the holiest relic of Georgia, said to be buried under the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral in the town of Mtskheta. The supporters are lions rampant. The shield is surmounted with the royal crown of Georgia, the so-called Iberian crown.
