Andorra to Netherlands visa requirements

No visa is required. Andorran ordinary passport holders can travel to the Netherlands visa-free for tourism and short visits for up to 90 days in any 180-day period across the Schengen Area. Andorra is listed in Annex II of EU Regulation (EU) 2018/1806, meaning its nationals are exempt from the short-stay visa requirement when entering the Schengen Area, which includes the Netherlands. An Andorran ordinary passport holder may enter for tourism, business or family visits and stay up to 90 days within any rolling 180-day period without a visa. Andorra also has special Schengen border-treatment status: Andorran nationals are outside the upcoming ETIAS travel authorisation requirement and are exempt from Entry/Exit System (EES) registration, alongside nationals of Monaco and San Marino and holders of passports issued by the Vatican City State or the Holy See. Andorra is not itself in Schengen; access to Andorra is through France or Spain, so travellers should still count all Schengen days carefully. Travellers must carry a valid passport, meet standard Schengen entry conditions (proof of purpose, sufficient funds, return/onward travel), and respect the 90/180 day limit. Working or stays longer than 90 days require the appropriate Dutch long-stay visa, residence permit or work authorisation.
