Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport needs to be valid for the entire time you're in Andorra. No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required by Andorran immigration, but airlines may enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Andorra or Schengen area | Immigration officers at the French or Spanish border (Andorra has no airport) routinely ask for a return or onward ticket. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight out of the Schengen zone within 90 days. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Border officers may ask where you're staying, especially if you arrive by road from France or Spain. A hotel confirmation or a letter from your host covers this — keep a copy on your phone. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Andorra doesn't publish a fixed minimum, but carrying a credit card and a recent bank statement (or cash equivalent to €100 per day) satisfies any random check at the border. | Recommended |
No airport in Andorra
You must enter through Spain or France. Make sure your passport and documents meet their entry requirements — they control the border, not Andorra.
90-day limit applies to all Schengen + Andorra
Your 90-day visa-free stay in Andorra counts toward the 90-day limit for the entire Schengen Area. If you've already spent time in Spain, France, or other Schengen countries, track your days carefully.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at the border
Andorra has no airport. You'll fly into Barcelona (BCN), Toulouse (TLS), or Girona (GRO), then take a bus or drive. At the Spanish or French border checkpoint, present your passport, return ticket, and accommodation confirmation.
2
Passport control
The border officer will check your passport validity (6+ months), stamp it, and may ask about your plans. Answer clearly — tourism or business. No visa fee or form is needed.
3
Enter Andorra
Once stamped, you're free to stay up to 90 days. Keep your passport accessible — there are no internal checks within Andorra itself.
