What is an ESA Letter?

An Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letter is a legally recognized document issued by a licensed mental health professional as part of an individual’s treatment plan. For people experiencing emotional or mental health conditions, an emotional support animal can provide comfort, stability, and therapeutic support. A valid ESA letter provides important housing protections under the Fair Housing Act (FHA). It allows individuals to live with their emotional support animal even in housing that has no-pet policies, without paying additional fees. Under the FHA, landlords may not charge pet rent or deposits, impose breed or size restrictions, or deny housing solely because of an emotional support animal.

How Georgia Defines Disability & Service Animals (and Why It Matters)

Under O.C.G.A. §16-11-107.1, Georgia’s service dog laws primarily protect individuals who are blind, visually impaired, physically disabled, or deaf. These statutes guarantee equal access to public accommodations and the right to be accompanied by a trained guide or service dog.
Through the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Fair Housing Act (FHA), federal law uses a broader definition of disability. It includes both physical and mental impairments that substantially limit one or more major life activities, such as anxiety disorders, PTSD, major depressive disorder, and related conditions, as recognized by HUD.

In practice, emotional support animals (ESAs) in Georgia are protected under federal housing laws, not under the state’s more narrowly defined service dog statute. The Georgia Commission on Equal Opportunity (GCEO) enforces the Georgia Fair Housing Law, which closely mirrors the FHA and prohibits housing discrimination based on disability. As a result, Georgia landlords are generally required to consider ESAs as reasonable accommodations even in “no-pet” housing when proper documentation is provided.

ESA vs. Service Dog (Georgia and Federal Law)

Category

Emotional Support Animal (ESA)

Service Dog

Training requirement

No specialized task training required

Professionally or individually trained to perform specific disability-related tasks

Public Access Rights

No access to public places including restaurants, stores, hotels or other public spaces

Broad public-access rights under the ADA and O.C.G.A. §30-4-2, including public accommodations and transportation

Species

Dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and other animals (FHA does not impose a strict species limit)

Dogs only, with limited exceptions for miniature horses under the ADA in Georgia, an “assistance dog” is explicitly a trained dog

Housing Protections

Protected as a reasonable accommodation under FHA

Fully protected in housing; service dogs qualify as both service animals and assistance animals

Primary legal role

Enables equal use and enjoyment of housing by providing emotional support or disability mitigation

Provides task-based assistance such as guiding, alerting, mobility support, or psychiatric tasks in public settings and often in the workplace

Penalties for misuse

No specific “fake ESA” statute. Fraudulent documentation or misrepresentation can undermine protections and may result in denial, eviction, or liability for damages

Harassing an assistance dog or allowing a dog to injure one is a criminal offense under O.C.G.A. §16-11-107.1, with misdemeanor or high-and-aggravated penalties in severe cases

Key Takeaways for Georgia ESA Owners

Federal Fair Housing Act (FHA) provides primary ESA protections

Georgia residents with a valid emotional support animal are protected under federal housing law. With a legitimate ESA letter, tenants may be exempt from pet fees, breed restrictions, and size limitations.

No Georgia law specifically penalizing ESA or service animal misrepresentation

Georgia does not currently impose criminal or civil penalties for falsely claiming an animal is an ESA or a service animal.

No public-access rights for ESAs

Emotional support animals are not protected under Georgia law or the ADA for access to public places such as restaurants, stores, hotels, or public transportation.

Service animal protections do not extend to ESAs

Georgia statutes O.C.G.A. §30-4-2 and §16-11-107.1 protect service animals assisting individuals who are blind, deaf, or physically disabled. ESAs are not included under these service-animal protections.

Consequences for misrepresentation may still occur

Although no criminal penalties exist, falsely representing an ESA can lead to eviction from housing, removal from public spaces, or disciplinary action by universities or housing providers.

Penalties for denying legitimate service animals

Under O.C.G.A. §30-4-5, denying or interfering with access for an individual accompanied by a service dog is classified as a high and aggravated misdemeanor. Penalties may include fines of up to $2,000, imprisonment for up to 30 days, or both.

Annual ESA letter renewal is recommended

To maintain FHA housing protections, an ESA letter should remain current and be issued by a licensed Georgia mental health professional.
