Buying Property in Andorra: What You Need to Know

Andorra offers a clear and secure legal framework for real estate investment. Foreign nationals can purchase property in the Principality, although there are certain requirements depending on their residency status. Residents can buy without restrictions, while non-residents must obtain foreign investment authorization from the Government of Andorra, a process handled by the notary and usually completed within a few weeks.

Acquisition costs in Andorra are competitive compared with other European countries. The Property Transfer Tax (ITP) is 4% of the transaction value, in addition to notary fees (approximately 0.1–0.5%, depending on the value) and registration costs. There is no wealth tax or inheritance tax on transfers between direct family members, making Andorra an attractive destination for long-term real estate investment.

Bank financing is available to both residents and non-residents, although terms and conditions vary. Andorran banks typically finance between 60% and 80% of the appraised value, with terms of up to 25–30 years. Interest rates are competitive, with fixed, variable, and mixed-rate options available. Our team helps you compare offers from different institutions to find the best option.
