›How to apply for the Andorra digital nomad visa
- Gather documentation. Collect 3–6 months of bank statements showing income above the threshold, employment contracts or freelance agreements, valid passport, international health insurance certificate, and a police clearance certificate from your home country.
- Authenticate documents. Check whether Andorra requires an apostille stamp on foreign-issued documents. Arrange certified translations for documents not in the local language or English.
- Submit your application. Apply through the official Andorra government portal. Some programs accept online applications; others require in-person submission at a consulate.
- Await approval and enter. Once approved, book travel and ensure your health insurance is active from day one in Andorra. Register with local immigration if required within the first 30 days of arrival.
›Tax treatment for Andorra digital nomad visa holders
Tax obligations for Andorra digital nomad visa holders depend on your residency status and the duration of your stay. Most holders are not considered tax residents in Andorra if their income originates entirely abroad.
However, stays exceeding 183 days in a calendar year may trigger local tax residency under Andorra's standard rules. Always consult a tax professional familiar with both your home country's tax laws and Andorra's tax code before committing to an extended stay.
Always consult a qualified tax professional before making long-term commitments. Tax laws change and bilateral tax treaties between your home country and Andorra may affect your obligations.
›Common mistakes to avoid
Applying without consistent income documentation
Depositing a lump sum the month before applying doesn't work. Immigration officials want to see 3–6 months of consistent income above the threshold. Sporadic payments or irregular freelance income may not qualify. Start documenting your earnings well before applying.
Confusing tourist visa status with digital nomad visa permission
Working — even remotely for a foreign company — is prohibited under tourist status in most countries. Digital nomad visas exist specifically to legalize what would otherwise be illegal work. Don't risk deportation or future entry bans by working on a tourist visa.
Underestimating document authentication time
Apostille stamps and certified translations can take 2–6 weeks depending on your home country's processes. Budget extra time before your intended start date and apply for authentication as soon as you decide to apply.
