<< Back To Age Of Consent Page
The official age of consent in Georgia is 16 years old.
The age of consent is the age at which any person, male or female, is legally able to decide for themselves whether or not to enter into a consentual sexual relationship or situation. The age of consent varies by state and country, so it's always important to check before you go somewhere new if you think there's a chance you'll be interacting sexually with anyone under the age of 21.
You can verify this by going to
http://www.lexis-nexis.com/hottopics/gacode/default.asp - the OCGA (Official Code of Georgia Annotated) - and looking up 16-6-3. That's Title 16, Chapter 6.
