Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for duration of stay | Your passport must be valid for the entire period you plan to stay in Andorra. Since Andorra has no airport, you enter via France or Spain — those Schengen countries may enforce the 6-month validity rule at their borders, so check your passport before traveling. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure | Immigration officers at the French or Spanish border crossing may ask for proof of onward travel. Have a printed or digital copy of your return flight or bus ticket out of Andorra ready. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Border officers occasionally ask for a hotel reservation or a letter from your host in Andorra. Keep a copy of your booking confirmation on your phone or printed out. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | You may be asked to show you have enough money for your stay. A bank statement or credit card with a reasonable limit (around €100 per day of stay) usually satisfies the officer. | Recommended |
Andorra has no airport
You must enter by road from France or Spain. The nearest airports are in Barcelona (Spain) and Toulouse (France). Plan your transport accordingly.
90-day limit applies
Your stay in Andorra counts toward the 90-day Schengen limit if you enter from a Schengen country. Track your days carefully to avoid overstaying.
