Andorra Visa for France Citizens 2026

Visa Free

French citizens can enter Andorra freely with no visa or entry stamp, using a passport or national ID card, thanks to the open border between the two countries.

Guide last updated September 22, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Valid French passport or national ID card - no visa or entry stamp required
  • No specific proof of funds or accommodation is checked at the border in practice
  • Travel health insurance recommended, since Andorra is outside EU health-system reciprocity for some treatments
  • No biometrics or forms of any kind for entry
  • No return ticket required, since there is no formal immigration control

Visa types

  • No visa category applies - Andorra has no visa regime for French citizens; entry is unrestricted for tourism, business, or short stays
  • Long-term residence (e.g. for work) requires a separate Andorran residence permit (autoritzacio de residencia) applied for directly with the Andorran government, not a visa

Entry conditions

  • French citizens can enter and stay in Andorra without a fixed time limit for short visits, tourism, or shopping trips
  • No employment authorization is required for short visits, but working in Andorra requires a residence and work permit
  • There are no routine border checkpoints between France and Andorra (occasional customs spot checks apply)
  • No formal extension process is needed since there is no visa or entry stamp

Fees & processing time

  • No fee, form, or processing time for entry, since no visa is required
  • Andorran residence permit (for relocation): government fee approx EUR 500 for active residence, processing 2-4 months
  • No VFS or embassy service involved for short visits

Tips for France travelers

  • Bring your ID card rather than passport for convenience, since France-Andorra crossings rarely involve formal document checks
  • Andorra is outside the EU customs union, so duty-free allowances apply when returning to France - keep receipts for larger purchases
  • Relocating to Andorra for tax residency requires the separate residence permit process, with proof of housing and either an investment or self-employment activity
  • Mobile roaming may default to Spanish or French carriers depending on the valley you're in - check your plan to avoid surprise charges
