Turkish passport holders need a visa to enter Andorra in 2026. Since Andorra has no airport, you'll fly into Barcelona (Spain) or Toulouse (France) and cross the border by road. Both countries are in the Schengen Area, so you'll also need a valid Schengen visa or residence permit to transit through them.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Visa application Visa required | Andorra does not have its own visa system. You must apply for a Schengen visa (short-stay, type C) at the Spanish or French embassy or consulate in Turkey, since Andorra is only accessible via Spain or France. Submit your application at least 15 days before travel, and expect processing to take up to 15 calendar days.Apply for Schengen visa | Required |
| Valid passport Must be valid for entire stay | Your passport must be valid for the entire duration of your stay in Andorra. Since you enter via Spain or France, the Schengen zone rule applies: your passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen area. Airlines may enforce 6 months validity — check with your carrier before booking. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Required for Schengen entry | Immigration officers at the Spanish or French border check for a confirmed return or onward ticket before letting you into the Schengen zone. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight or bus ticket out of Andorra (or back to Turkey) ready. Budget airlines at Barcelona or Toulouse airports are strict about this. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Recommended | Carry a hotel booking confirmation or a letter of invitation from your host in Andorra. Border officers rarely ask for it, but if you arrive without a clear place to stay, they may question your itinerary. A simple booking.com confirmation works. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Recommended | Have bank statements or a credit card showing you can cover your stay. Schengen rules suggest around €65–€120 per day depending on accommodation type. I've never been asked for this at the Andorran border, but Spanish or French officers may request it at the entry point. | Recommended |
Schengen visa is mandatory
You cannot enter Andorra without a valid Schengen visa or residence permit. Andorra has no visa waiver for Turkish passport holders. Plan your Schengen visa application well in advance.
