What you need

  • Passport: Must be valid for at least six (6) months from the date of arrival in the Maldives.
  • Visa application form: Not required for visa-free entry.
  • Financial proof: Proof of sufficient funds to cover your stay (e.g., bank statements, credit cards). While no specific amount is universally stated, authorities may ask to see funds for your intended duration of stay. It is advisable to have at least USD 100 per day of stay.
  • Accommodation and return ticket: A confirmed onward or return ticket to your country of residence or another destination, and confirmed hotel bookings or other proof of accommodation are mandatory.
  • Photo specification: No passport photos are required for the visa-free process itself, as entry is granted on arrival. However, ensure your passport meets standard international photographic requirements.
  • Biometrics: Biometric data (fingerprints and photograph) will be collected upon arrival at immigration for the immigration record.
  • Travel health insurance: While not strictly mandatory for entry, it is highly recommended to have comprehensive travel health insurance covering medical emergencies and repatriation.

Tips for Andorra travelers

  • Any current travel advisories or bilateral notes: Check the official Maldives Immigration website (immigration.gov.mv) and your country's foreign travel advice before your trip for any updates or specific advisories affecting Andorra citizens.
  • Extension options inside Maldives: If you wish to extend your stay beyond the initial 30 days, you must apply for an extension at the Department of Immigration in Malé prior to your current visa's expiry. You will need to provide a completed application form, passport, passport-sized photos, proof of accommodation, and proof of sufficient funds. Fees apply for extensions.
