  • Total cost estimate: USD 51 plus any incidental costs for photos or printing documents.

Tips for Andorra travelers

  • How far in advance to apply: For Visa on Arrival, no advance application is needed. However, ensure you have all required documents ready before your flight.
  • Common rejection reasons for Andorra applicants specifically: While there are no specific rejections unique to Andorra, common reasons for Visa on Arrival refusal at any nationality include:
  • Insufficient passport validity (less than 6 months).
  • Lack of return ticket or proof of onward travel.
  • Inability to show sufficient financial means.
  • Incomplete or inaccurate visa application forms.
  • Suspicious travel history or unclear purpose of visit.
  • Arrival from a yellow fever endemic country without a vaccination certificate (if applicable).
  • VFS/BLS vs direct embassy application: Visa on Arrival is processed directly by the immigration authorities at the port of entry. For any visa category not covered by VOA, Andorra citizens should contact the nearest Bangladesh Embassy or Consulate to plan their application process well in advance.
  • Any current travel advisories or bilateral notes: Always check the official website of the Bangladesh Ministry of Foreign Affairs (mofa.gov.bd) or your home country's foreign office for any specific travel advisories or bilateral agreements impacting travel from Andorra to Bangladesh. As of current knowledge, there are no specific bilateral notes that exempt Andorra from visa requirements.
  • Extension options inside Bangladesh: If you wish to stay longer than the initial 30 days granted by the Visa on Arrival, you can apply for an extension at the Department of Immigration and Passports in Dhaka. Extensions are granted at the discretion of the immigration authorities and are typically for a further 30 days, with possible extensions thereafter under specific circumstances. You will need to provide a valid reason for the extension and meet any updated requirements.
