Summary
Andorra's entrepreneur-program residence is a targeted route for newcomers participating in a foreign-entrepreneur program promoted by the ministry responsible for the economy. It is best understood as an innovation or program-selection pathway, not a general business-owner visa.
For ordinary business owners who want to live and operate in Andorra, the self-employed residence-and-work authorization is usually the more direct route.
Eligibility
You may be a fit if:
- You are accepted into, invited to, or a strong candidate for an approved foreign-entrepreneur program connected to Andorra's economy ministry.
- Your work can be carried out without a fixed geographic location using telecommunications and technology, as the official route describes.
- You can spend at least 90 days per calendar year in Andorra.
- You can show housing or a qualifying path to housing.
- You can show economic means for yourself and any dependents for the full permit period. The official page does not publish a fixed euro figure in the route summary; it says the amount must meet the requirements set by regulation.
- You maintain private coverage valid in Andorra for illness and incapacity for yourself and any dependents. Minors and people over 60 are generally asked for illness coverage.
- You can provide criminal-record certificates and complete the medical review.
What This Route Allows
This route can let selected foreign entrepreneurs reside in Andorra while participating in a program promoted by the ministry responsible for the economy. It is a residence route for a specific government-recognized entrepreneur-program situation.
What This Route Is Not
This is not Andorra's general business-owner or self-employed route. A normal local business plan usually belongs under the self-employed residence-and-work authorization, not this entrepreneur-program category.
Next Steps
- Identify the relevant Andorran entrepreneur program before treating this as viable.
- Prepare pitch materials, company records, product information, and proof of founder role.
- Obtain the required favorable resolution or program evidence from the economy ministry.
- Arrange housing, proof of economic means, and private coverage in Andorra.
- File the residence application with the required civil, criminal-record, and medical documents.
