Bangladeshi passport holders need a visa to enter Andorra. Since Andorra has no airport, you'll fly into Barcelona (Spain) or Toulouse (France) and cross the border by road — that means you also need a Schengen visa for the transit country. Plan ahead in 2026.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for the entire period you plan to stay in Andorra. Andorra does not enforce a 6-month validity rule, but airlines may still require it for boarding. | Required |
| Schengen visa application Apply before travel | Andorra is not part of the Schengen zone but requires a valid Schengen visa for entry. Apply at the Spanish or French embassy in Bangladesh, as Andorra has no airport — you must enter via Spain or France. Processing takes 15–30 days.Apply for Schengen visa | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure | Immigration officers at the Spanish/French border check that you have a return or onward ticket out of the Schengen area. Budget airlines flying into Barcelona or Toulouse often ask to see it at check-in. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Have a hotel reservation or a letter from your host in Andorra ready. Border officers at the entry point (Spain or France) may ask for it, especially if you arrive by land. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | Carry evidence of at least €100 per day of stay (or €1,000 total for short trips). Bank statements or a credit card with sufficient limit work fine. | Recommended |
Schengen visa is mandatory — no shortcuts
You cannot enter Andorra without first entering Spain or France. That means a valid multiple-entry Schengen visa is non-negotiable. Don't book flights or hotels until you have it in hand.
Andorra is not in Schengen — plan your re-entry
When you leave Andorra, you'll re-enter the Schengen area. Border guards will stamp your passport. Make sure your visa has at least one entry left and enough validity for your return journey.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for a Schengen visa
Submit your application at the Spanish or French embassy/consulate in Dhaka. Book an appointment online, fill the form, pay the fee (€80 for adults), and attend the interview. Processing takes 15 calendar days on average.
2
Book your flights and accommodation
Book a round-trip flight from Dhaka to Barcelona or Toulouse. Reserve hotels in both the transit country and Andorra. Keep all confirmations handy.
3
Travel to the Schengen transit country
Fly into Barcelona-El Prat Airport or Toulouse-Blagnac Airport. Go through Schengen border control — show your passport, visa, return ticket, and accommodation proof. They may ask about your Andorra plans.
4
Cross into Andorra by road
From Barcelona, take a bus (4 hours, ~€35) or rent a car. From Toulouse, it's about 3 hours by bus. At the Andorran border, there's no passport control — just drive or walk through. Keep your passport and visa ready anyway.
5
Exit Andorra and re-enter Schengen
When leaving Andorra, you'll re-enter Spain or France. Border guards may check your passport and visa again. Make sure your Schengen visa still has validity for re-entry.

Frequently asked questions
No, Andorra doesn't issue its own visas. But since you must transit through Spain or France, you need a valid multiple-entry Schengen visa from either country. Without it, you can't enter Andorra.
No. A single-entry visa lets you enter Schengen once. You'll exit Schengen to enter Andorra, then need to re-enter it to fly home. That requires a multiple-entry visa.
Standard processing is 15 calendar days, but it can take up to 45 days during peak seasons. Apply at least 4-6 weeks before your trip. The fee is €80 for adults, €40 for children 6-12, free for under-6s.
Direct bus from Barcelona Nord station to Andorra la Vella. Companies like Andbus and DirectBus run daily — journey takes about 4 hours, tickets cost €35-€45 one way. You can also rent a car, but winter driving requires snow chains.
No formal passport control when crossing from Spain or France. But Spanish or French border guards may stop vehicles randomly. Always carry your passport and visa. On the way back into Schengen, you will go through passport control.
Your stay in Andorra is limited by your Schengen visa's validity. Andorra doesn't issue extensions for tourists. You must leave before your Schengen visa expires, and you can't overstay in the Schengen area either.
You can appeal within 30 days at the embassy that rejected it. Alternatively, reapply with stronger documentation — more bank statements, a detailed itinerary, and proof of ties to Bangladesh (job letter, property deeds). Consider applying through a different Schengen country if your main transit point changes.
