Andorra Visa for China Citizens 2026

Visa Required

Andorra has no resident embassies abroad, so Chinese citizens must obtain a Schengen visa from a French or Spanish consulate to transit through France or Spain and enter Andorra by land.

Guide last updated October 3, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure from Schengen territory
  • Completed Schengen visa application form (submitted via the French or Spanish consulate, since Andorra is not a Schengen member but is accessed only through France or Spain)
  • Proof of accommodation in Andorra and itinerary
  • Travel medical insurance covering at least EUR 30,000, valid across the Schengen area
  • Proof of sufficient funds and round-trip transport
  • Biometrics (fingerprints and photo) at the consulate or visa center

Visa types

  • Short-stay Schengen-type visa processed through France or Spain, used to enter Andorra: single or multiple entry, up to 90 days within 180 days
  • Choose the French or Spanish consulate depending on which border crossing you plan to use to reach Andorra
  • No separate Andorran visa category exists for tourists, since Andorra itself does not issue entry visas

How to apply

  • Apply at the French or Spanish consulate/visa application center in China, specifying Andorra as the main destination with France or Spain as the entry/transit country
  • Submit passport, application form, photos, accommodation proof in Andorra, insurance, and financial proof
  • Attend a biometric appointment
  • Once approved, the Schengen visa sticker (France or Spain) permits entry and travel into Andorra by road

Fees & processing time

  • Standard Schengen visa fee: approximately EUR 90
  • Visa center service fee (if using an outsourced center): additional EUR 20-30
  • Standard processing: 15 calendar days, though it can extend to 30-45 days during busy periods
  • No dedicated express service for this route

Tips for China travelers

  • Decide your entry route (via France or via Spain) before applying, since that determines which consulate handles your visa
  • Clearly state Andorra as the main destination in the cover letter to avoid confusion about the itinerary
  • Book refundable or flexible accommodation in Andorra to support the application
  • Apply at least 4-6 weeks before travel given Schengen processing times
  • Common rejection reasons: unclear primary destination, insufficient Andorra-specific accommodation proof, insufficient insurance coverage
