Correction as of April 2023
: This change became effective October 14, 2022, and it was erroneously documented that acquirers in Georgia must support Field 39-Response Code in response messages. Important information was missing regarding response code
1A
 (additional customer authentication required), which merchants in Georgia must support for card-present and e-commerce authorizations. When PIN data is required for card-present transactions, merchants in Georgia will continue to receive response code
70
 in the response message.
