🇦🇩 Vaccines for Andorra

Entry requirements & recommendations for travel to Andorra

Andorra requires no specific travel vaccines and is a low-risk alpine microstate between France and Spain, with healthcare infrastructure broadly comparable to its larger neighbours. Most visitors come for skiing in winter or hiking in summer, plus duty-free shopping. Tick-borne encephalitis exists at low levels in forested Pyrenean areas similar to neighbouring regions of France and Spain, relevant mainly for those planning extensive lower-altitude hiking during warmer months. There's no malaria risk and routine vaccinations should simply be kept current. The small size of the country means more serious medical needs are often handled via France or Spain.

Do I need vaccines for Andorra?
No vaccines are required for entry to Andorra, and none are specifically recommended for typical visits — skiing, hiking, or shopping. Andorra's health profile is broadly comparable to France and Spain, its two bordering neighbours, and the overall risk is very low. Tick-borne encephalitis exists at low levels in forested Pyrenean areas, but isn't a consideration for ski resort or town-based visits.
Is there malaria in Andorra?
No. Andorra is completely malaria-free, as are France and Spain which border it on all sides.
Is tap water safe in Andorra?
Yes. Tap water in Andorra is safe to drink throughout the country, including in ski resorts and the capital Andorra la Vella, and meets European standards.
What is the main health risk in Andorra?
There are no significant infectious disease risks in Andorra. For skiers — the main visitor group in winter — injury risk from winter sports is the most relevant practical health consideration, not vaccination. Altitude is modest (ski resorts sit around 1500-2600m) and not a meaningful concern for most visitors. Comprehensive travel insurance covering winter sports injury is more important than any vaccine consideration for a typical Andorra trip. For summer hikers, tick awareness in lower forested areas is a minor sensible precaution.
