⚠️ Important Notes
Andorra is a co-principality between France and Spain and is NOT a Schengen member state. Pakistani passport holders CANNOT enter Andorra without first obtaining a valid multiple-entry or double-entry Schengen visa. A single-entry Schengen visa will be used up when you first enter France or Spain, leaving you unable to re-enter after visiting Andorra. Always apply for a multiple-entry Schengen visa if Andorra is part of your travel plans. Andorra is known for duty-free shopping and ski resorts. There are no airports or train stations in Andorra; all entry is by road only.

- ✗ No proof of accommodation in Andorra
- ✗ Travel insurance not covering Andorra or the full duration of stay
