You can withdraw cash in Abkhazia with a Russian card, but it is not as easy as in Russia. There are few ATMs here, and they only work with cards of the Russian payment system "Mir". Visa and Mastercard cards issued by Russian banks do not work in Abkhazia. It is best to prepare in advance and withdraw the required amount of cash rubles in Russia, but if this is not possible, here is how things stand with ATMs in 2026.

In Abkhazia, ATMs of local banks that accept Mir cards operate. There are no large ATM networks like in Russia. The main places where you can find ATMs are the cities Gagra, Sukhum, Pitsunda, New Athos and Gudauta. For example, in Gagra, ATMs are located at: st. Abazgaa, 57/1 ("UNIVERSAL-BANK"), st. Abazgaa, 55/4 (Sberbank of the Republic of Abkhazia) and pr. V. Ardzinba, 165 ("SUKHUM-BANK"). In Sukhum there are more of them, but it can be difficult to find them right away.

It is also worth considering that ATMs are not everywhere, and they may be temporarily unavailable or not working. Therefore, if you are planning a trip to remote areas or wild beaches, it is better to have a sufficient supply of cash rubles with you. In large cities and resorts, the situation with ATMs is better, but you still should not rely only on them.

By the way, recently in Abkhazia, payment via QR code through SBP and transfers by phone number to a Sber card are becoming more common. Even in markets and from private traders you can pay in this way. But for this you need mobile internet, which works unstable in Abkhazia, especially in the mountains.
