## Key facts

- **How to apply:** In-person at an embassy or visa center
- **Proof of funds:** ~70 EUR per day of stay (common Schengen requirement)

## How to apply

1. **Determine which Schengen country embassy (France or Spain) to apply at** — Since Andorra is only accessible via France or Spain, you need a multiple-entry Schengen visa issued by either country based on your main destination.
2. **Gather all required documents** — Collect passport, photos, application form, itinerary, bookings, insurance, financial proof, and employment documents.
3. **Complete the uniform Schengen visa application form** — Fill out the form accurately online or in paper format.
4. **Book an appointment at the chosen embassy or consulate / visa centre** — Appointments are usually mandatory for Schengen visa applications.
5. **Attend the in-person appointment** — Submit documents, provide biometric data (fingerprints and photo) and pay the visa fee.
6. **Wait for visa processing** — Processing takes about 15 calendar days; may extend to 45 days in some cases.
7. **Collect passport with visa decision** — If approved, the visa will be affixed to the passport.
8. **Travel to France/Spain first** — Enter the Schengen area via the country that issued the visa.
9. **Enter Andorra from France or Spain** — No border control between Schengen and Andorra, but ensure your multiple-entry Schengen visa covers the period.
10. **Exit the Schengen area via any Schengen member state** — Your departure must be within the visa validity and from a Schengen country.
