Entry requirements

RequirementDetailsStatus
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 require 6 months of validity beyond your departure date, but airlines may enforce their own rules — check with your carrier before flying.Required
Schengen visa application
Apply before travel
Since Andorra is not in the Schengen Area but is only accessible via France or Spain, you need a valid Schengen visa to enter. Apply at the embassy of the Schengen country you will transit through (usually France or Spain). Use the official visa application portal of that country — Andorra itself does not issue visas.Apply for Schengen visaRequired
Return or onward ticket
Proof of departure from Schengen Area
Immigration officers at the Schengen border (France or Spain) will ask for a return or onward ticket showing you leave the Schengen zone within your visa's validity. Budget airlines check this strictly at check-in — have a printed or digital copy ready.Required
Proof of accommodation
Hotel booking or invitation letter
Carry a hotel reservation or a letter from your host in Andorra. Border officers at the Schengen entry point may ask to see where you are staying, especially if you arrive without a pre-booked itinerary.Recommended
Proof of funds
Show sufficient money for your stay
Have bank statements or cash showing you can cover your expenses — around €50–€100 per day is a safe benchmark. Schengen border officers rarely ask, but it's better to have evidence ready.Recommended
No airport in Andorra
Andorra has no commercial airport. You must fly into Barcelona (Spain) or Toulouse (France), then take a bus or drive. Your Schengen visa must cover the transit country.
Visa-free transit not possible
Mongolian passport holders do not qualify for visa-free transit through Spain or France. You must have a valid Schengen visa before you board your flight.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Andorra requires a visa for Mongolian citizens. Since Andorra has no airport, you must enter through Spain or France, so you'll also need a valid Schengen visa or residence permit from a Schengen country.
No. Andorra does not issue its own visas. You must apply for a Schengen visa at the embassy of Spain or France (whichever country you'll transit through). The visa costs €80 for adults, €40 for children 6-12, and is free for children under 6.
Standard processing is 15 calendar days from the date of application. It can take up to 45 days in some cases, so apply at least 4 weeks before your trip.
You'll need a completed application form, passport valid for 6+ months, two recent passport photos, travel insurance (minimum €30,000 coverage), flight itinerary, accommodation bookings, proof of sufficient funds (around €60-100 per day), and a cover letter explaining your trip.
No. Andorra does not allow visa extensions. You must leave before your Schengen visa expires. Overstaying can result in fines or a ban from the Schengen area.
You will be denied entry into Spain or France and cannot reach Andorra. You'll be sent back on the next available flight at your own expense.
It's not always checked at the border, but it's required for the Schengen visa application. For your own safety, get insurance covering medical emergencies and repatriation — hospital stays in Andorra can be expensive.
