In Brief

Andorran authorities have begun fining owners of motorhomes and campers for overnight stays outside designated areas. The fine is €600, reduced by half if paid on the spot, and the vehicle may be impounded if unpaid.

Andorra has enacted a law imposing fines of up to €600 for overnight stays in motorhomes and campers outside specially designated areas. After a transition period starting in July 2025, police have begun issuing fines. The amount is halved if paid on the spot, and the vehicle may be impounded if the fine remains unpaid.

The measure, adopted by the Ministry of Tourism and Trade, aims to free up parking spaces and ensure collection of the tourist tax of €1.05 per person per day. Parishes have simultaneously created new overnight spots to better control tax collection. The country now offers 350 places, including campsites and special zones.

Special attention is given to repeat offenders and overnight stays in protected areas such as Lake Tristaina or Engolasters. Users complain about insufficient infrastructure and a potential drop in tourist flow.

Andorra introduces €600 fine for overnight stays in motorhomes and caravans outside permitted areas

Andorra has enforced a ban on overnight stays and camping in motorhomes and caravans outside official zones since 2025. Violators face a €600 fine, reduced to €300 if paid on the spot; refusal to pay results in vehicle seizure by police. The measure aims to reduce pressure on nature and infrastructure, following similar restrictions in Spain, Portugal, and France. Legal overnight options include campsites and designated areas, with an updated list available from the tourism office.
