Andorra to Algeria visa requirements

Andorran ordinary passport holders need a visa to visit Algeria for tourism. Andorra is not on Algeria's visa-exempt list, and no public official general eVisa route for Andorran independent tourists was verified, so the standard route is a consular (sticker) tourist visa obtained in advance. As of mid-2026, citizens of Andorra (AD) holding an ordinary passport require a visa to enter Algeria (DZ) for tourism or a short visit. Andorra does not appear on Algeria's limited visa-exemption list, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa page instructs foreign nationals subject to visa formalities to apply at the Algerian embassy or consulate in their country of residence. No official general eVisa route for Andorran independent tourists was verified in public sources. There is also a narrow visa-on-arrival facilitation for certain organized trips to southern Algeria, but it is not the standard route for an independent Andorran tourist. The reliable route is a short-stay tourist visa obtained from the Algerian mission before travel. Because Algeria has no embassy or consulate in Andorra, applicants should follow the nearest/competent Algerian mission instructions, commonly Madrid/Spain or another mission that accepts the file. Fees and timing are mission-specific: the Madrid embassy publishes a EUR 95 visa fee for Spanish nationals and says other nationalities should consult the consular service, while official mission guidance commonly cites around 10-15 working days, 14 days, or applying at least 4 weeks before travel. Travelers should prepare standard supporting documents such as passport, application forms, photos, accommodation or invitation, return ticket, travel insurance, and proof of means where requested.
