Andorra to Guinea-Bissau visa requirements

Andorran ordinary passport holders need a visa for Guinea-Bissau. The recommended route is the RGB online biometric visa pre-enrolment before travel. Visa on arrival is possible only with a prior Migration Office authorisation letter, not as a simple walk-up fallback. Guinea-Bissau is in West Africa and is not part of the Schengen area, so ETIAS and the 90/180 Schengen rule do not apply. A citizen of Andorra (AD) holding an ordinary passport is not visa-exempt for Guinea-Bissau (GW). Guinea-Bissau waives visas only for ECOWAS member-state nationals and limited official-passport categories; Andorra qualifies for neither. The traveler must therefore obtain a visa. Guinea-Bissau operates an electronic biometric visa system (the RGB / Electronic Visa Application System at rgb-visa.com), which is the recommended channel because it produces a visa issuing confirmation before departure and links the biometric data captured at the border. The RGB page also describes a visa-on-arrival process, but only for travelers who already hold a letter of authorisation from the Migration Office of Guinea-Bissau; a local contact normally requests that letter and the traveler prints it for presentation when applying for the visa. The RGB fee table lists a short-stay single-entry visa for 30 days at EUR 61.45 plus a EUR 2.50 transaction fee, and a 3-month multiple-entry visa at EUR 70.45 plus EUR 2.50. Passports must be valid at least six months beyond entry with two blank pages, and travelers should carry proof of onward travel and accommodation. CDC Travelers' Health lists yellow fever vaccine as required for all arriving travelers aged one year or older. Guinea-Bissau is NOT a Schengen state, so neither the Schengen 90/180 short-stay rule nor ETIAS is relevant. As sources broadly agree there is no visa-free channel for Andorran ordinary passport holders, the conservative and accurate verdict is that a visa is required, best obtained through the RGB online system.
