Testing Before Leaving Andorra (Going Home)
- Your home country may require you to have a Covid test before returning home.
- Andorra has excellent facilities for Covid testing, because this has played a central role in how Andorra has managed the pandemic.
- There are currently ongoing discussions between the Government of Andorra and the ski stations to work out the best way to offer testing to the increased numbers of tourists anticipated this winter.
- Once the plan for testing has been finalised we will provide updates here.
Arriving Via Spain
- All tourists aged 12 years and upwards arriving into Spain must have one of the following:
- Proof of being fully vaccinated at least 14 days prior to arrival in Spain, or
- Documentation certifying a negative Covid test result in the 72 hours before arriving, which can be PCR, TMA, LAMP or NEAR (see next point).

- Documents can be in either English, Spanish, French or German and in paper or electronic format. All documents must specify the name and surname of the passenger.
- You must also complete a health declaration form online here within 48 hours before your flight. Once submitted you will receive a QR code to print or on their app, which you must have with you on arrival at the airport.
Arriving Via France
- Currently you can only enter France from the UK for holidays if you are fully vaccinated.
- If you are fully vaccinated, you must have the following:
- A completed ‘sworn statement’ (déclaration sur l’honneur) form self-certifying they are not suffering from symptoms associated with coronavirus and have not been in contact with confirmed cases in the preceding fortnight. This can be found on the French government’s website, and
- Proof of vaccination status.
- The French Government recognises the following vaccines: Pfizer, Moderna, Oxford/AstraZeneca, and Johnson & Johnson (the vaccines recognised by the European Medical Agency). “Fully vaccinated” is defined by the completion of a vaccination schedule, specifically:
- 1 week after the second dose of Pfizer, Moderna, Oxford/AstraZeneca.
- 4 weeks after the single and only dose of Johnson & Johnson.
- 1 week after the single dose of any of the above vaccines if you have previously tested positive for COVID-19.
- Children aged 12 years old or over who are not fully vaccinated and travelling with a fully vaccinated adult are required to present a negative test result (PCR or antigen). However, they do not need to provide an essential reason for travel, nor do they need to self-isolate on arrival.
