Andorra to Ireland visa requirements

No. Andorran (AD) ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for a short tourist visit to Ireland. Andorra remains listed in Ireland's Schedule 1 non-visa-required nationalities, allowing tourist visits of less than 90 days subject to border permission. Ireland is not in the Schengen Area and does not participate in ETIAS, so no Schengen visa or ETIAS authorization is required for Irish entry. Andorra is listed in Schedule 1 of Ireland's Immigration Act 2004 (Visas) Order 2014 as a nationality whose citizens are not required to hold an Irish visa. The latest 2026 amendment to that order, effective 15 June 2026, removed Nicaragua, Saint Kitts and Nevis, and Saint Lucia from Schedule 1 but did not change Andorra's status. Andorran ordinary passport holders may therefore travel to Ireland for tourism without obtaining a visa in advance. On arrival, an immigration officer grants permission to enter for genuine short visits; Ireland's Immigration Service Delivery describes tourist/short-break visits as less than 90 days. Although Ireland is an EU member, it is not part of the Schengen Area and maintains the Common Travel Area with the UK, so Schengen visas and the Schengen 90/180-day rule do not govern stays in Ireland. Ireland is also outside the ETIAS/EES border schemes, so no ETIAS authorization is required for Irish entry. Travelers must still carry a valid passport and should be ready to show evidence of funds, return/onward travel, accommodation details, and visit purpose; admission is always at the immigration officer's discretion. If an Andorran traveler intends to work, study long-term, or stay beyond the permitted period, a different immigration permission is required.
