Before booking, you should check with your doctor to see whether any health precautions are needed for your trip. Health advice and requirements can change, so we recommend doing this in good time before travel.


As a general rule, travellers should ensure they are up to date with routine UK vaccinations and boosters, including, for example, MMR and diphtheria, tetanus and polio. Some countries may require you to have specific vaccinations such as Malaria, Rabies and Yellow Fever. Please check with your GP if you are unsure.


Please note that the use or possession of some common prescription or over-the-counter medicines is restricted or banned in certain countries. If you will be carrying medication, you should check with the relevant embassy or consulate before travelling. As an extra precaution, we recommend keeping medication in its original packaging, carrying a copy of your prescription, and, where possible, asking your pharmacist to provide the medication name in the language of the country you are visiting.


For further country-specific health advice, visit www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk or www.traveldoctor.co.uk. If you are travelling from outside the UK, please consult your own doctor and check local entry requirements.

This information is for those travelling with a full ‘British Citizen’ passport; for all other nationalities or passport holders, please check with your local consulate for advice.
Passport Requirements

Andorra does not have its own airport and is normally accessed via France, which are part of the Schengen Area.
For UK passport holders, your passport must:


Have been issued within the last 10 years on the date you enter the Schengen Area


Be valid for at least 3 months after your planned departure from the Schengen Area


When arriving in France your passport will normally be stamped on entry and exit to the Schengen Area. There are usually no routine passport checks at the Andorra border.
Length of Stay
UK passport holders can visit countries in the Schengen Area for up to 90 days within any 180-day period without a visa.
As travel to Andorra is via France and passport controls are limited, time spent in Andorra may count towards your Schengen 90-day allowance.

Visa Requirements
Visa rules depend on your nationality, destination, length of stay, and purpose of travel, and they can change frequently. It is your responsibility to check whether you require a visa before travelling.
British passport holders should check the latest entry, passport validity and visa requirements for their destination on the UK government’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) website:
https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice 
Passport Stamping
When you cross the French–Andorran border, French border officers may stamp your passport on both entry into Andorra and exit back into France.
While the stamp isn’t strictly mandatory, it is strongly recommended, especially for British travellers, because:
Without the border stamps, the days you spend in Andorra may be counted towards your 90 day Schengen travel allowance.
With the correct stamps, only your first and last day of travel are counted, rather than the full duration of your stay.
What to Expect During Your Transfer
To help ensure your time in Andorra is recorded correctly:
Your transfer vehicle will stop at the French–Andorran border in both directions so you have the opportunity to get your passport stamped.
Border officials have advised that the process is usually quick, but it may add around 30 minutes to your transfer time.
his small step helps protect your Schengen allowance and keeps your future EU travel running smoothly.

Drinking Water
Standards for drinking water vary widely around the world. In many destinations, tap water may not be safe to drink, brush your teeth with, or use for making ice. Where advised, you should drink only bottled or treated water and ensure that bottle seals are intact before use. If bottled water is unavailable, water should be boiled or filtered.


Staying well hydrated is particularly important in hot climates and during active holidays. Carry water with you and drink regularly. 


If you are unsure about local water safety, check official country-specific health advice before travel, or ask your accommodation or local guides for guidance once you arrive.
