Jordanian passport holders need a visa to enter Andorra in 2026. Since Andorra has no airport, you'll arrive via Spain or France and must meet Schengen transit rules. The visa process takes 2-4 weeks, so apply early.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Visa application Visa required | Andorra has no airport — you enter via France or Spain. Since Andorra has no visa issuance of its own, you must hold a valid Schengen visa (or be visa-exempt for Schengen) to enter Andorra through either country. Apply for a Schengen visa at the embassy of France or Spain in Jordan before travel.Andorra visa info | Required |
| Valid passport Must be valid for duration of stay | Your Jordanian passport must be valid for the entire period you plan to stay in Andorra. Since you enter through Schengen territory, the 3-month validity rule applies for Schengen transit — your passport should be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen area. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Required for Schengen entry | Border officers at the Schengen entry point (France or Spain) will ask for proof of onward travel. Have a return flight or ticket to a non-Schengen country ready. Budget airlines check this strictly before boarding. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Schengen border officers may ask where you're staying in Andorra. Have a hotel confirmation or a letter from your host ready. This is not always checked but keeps things smooth. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show sufficient means for your stay | Carry evidence of funds — bank statements, cash, or credit card — to cover your stay in Andorra. Schengen rules suggest roughly €65 per day, but enforcement varies. A printed bank statement from the last month works fine. | Recommended |
