Compare the best ways to send money to Andorra

The exchange rate plays a key role in determining how much EUR your recipient in AD will get.

For example, in the past 7 days average rate for USD to EUR was 0.885 EUR.

Since USD-EUR exchange rates fluctuate with market conditions, waiting a couple of days could result in a better rate, giving your recipient more EUR.

If you need to make an urgent transfer, we recommend using Wise, which has consistently offered the best rates for Euro over the past 7 days.

The most cost-effective way to fund your transfer to Andorra is through a bank transfer with Revolut, which is 0.1% cheaper than the second-best service.

The way you fund your transfer to Andorra impacts the cost, speed, and how much EUR the recipient will receive.

Based on our data from the last 7 days for a $7,000 transfer from the US to Andorra, the following are your best options:

• Revolut with bank transfer deposit costs $0 and has a 0.2% markup.

• Wise with a debit card deposit costs $31.63 with 0.01% markup.

We advise against using debit card, as they tend to be the most expensive option for EUR transfers.

Credit card transfers may incur cash advance fees and higher interest rates on EUR, and are usually more expensive.

Whenever possible, avoid transfers via the SWIFT network to AD. SWIFT transfers to Andorra are slower and come with higher fees.

Instead, look for a cheaper option such as ACH or account balance.

Money transfer companies often have min and max limits on how much EUR you can send.

The amount you transfer can also affect the fees and the EUR exchange rate you receive. For instance, Wise is the best choice for sending large amounts to Andorra.

Additionally, there may be government-imposed restrictions, commercial limitations, and other factors that influence the amount of EUR you can send.

This is why it’s really important to compare your options when transferring money to Andorra.

Cash pickup and delivery

If the recipient in Andorra needs EUR urgently or doesn’t have access to a bank account in Andorra, cash pickup or home delivery are good options.

Mobile and digital wallets

You can receive EUR directly into digital wallets like PayPal, though this often comes with more limitations and costs more compared to services like Revolut.

When sending money to a bank account or e-wallet in Andorra, Euro will arrive without any involvement from the recipient.

However, if you're sending EUR as cash or transferring large amounts to Andorra, the recipient may need the following:

• Government-issued ID: A national ID of Andorra, a valid passport, or driver's license.

• Sender’s details: The sender's personal details such as full name and address.

• Transfer Details: The amount of EUR being received.

• Confirmation No.: This is usually given at the time of transfer.

• SWIFT Code / IBAN: Occasionally required for bank transfers.

The exact documents required may vary depending on the money transfer company and the transfer method used.

When sending bigger amounts to Andorra, companies may request proof of funds such as bank statements and address verification with the utility bill in line with AML (Anti-Money Laundering) policies.

We recommend using Wise to send large amounts of Euro.

There may be tax obligations and government-imposed limits or restrictions on EUR transfers/payments to AD.

Some EUR transfers could be subject to taxes such as gift tax or commercial tax.

Even if no limits or taxes apply, certain EUR transfers (especially large sums of Euro) may need to be reported to the tax authorities in Andorra or in your country.

When unsure, it’s best to consult with a tax professional in Andorra or your home country to ensure compliance with the regulations.
