Andorra to Congo (Rep.) visa requirements

Yes, Andorran passport holders need a visa to visit the Republic of the Congo (Congo-Brazzaville). Andorra is not listed for visa-free entry or visa on arrival, so the visa must be obtained before travel from a Congolese diplomatic mission or the official consular platform serving the applicant. A holder of an ordinary Andorran passport requires a visa obtained before travel to enter the Republic of the Congo (Congo-Brazzaville, country code CG) for tourism. Brazzaville airport's entry guidance lists visa-free entry only for biometric-passport holders from Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon, and visa on arrival only for Benin, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Senegal, and Togo; Andorra is in neither group. The official French consular platform for the Embassy of Congo in France lists 15-day and 91-day visa services with standard and express fees, while the Congolese embassy in Washington states that non-U.S. tourist visas are issued for 3 months/90 days with multiple entries and that visas are not issued at ports of entry. Fees, processing, and appointment rules are mission-specific, so Andorran travelers should use the Embassy of Congo in France/Girafe workflow or confirm with the Congolese mission that will process the passport. A passport valid at least 6 months, a visa obtained in advance, a hotel reservation or invitation, a travel itinerary, and proof of yellow fever vaccination are required or commonly requested. Apply well before departure; Washington states 7-10 business days with no rush service, while France lists express fee tiers but travelers still need to follow the live platform instructions.
