Andorra Import Duties & Taxes Explained

You'll pay Andorra's Indirect General Tax (IGI) at 4.5% on packages over €22, and Customs Duties on shipments exceeding €150. Duties vary by product type but commonly range 0-12%.

Andorra has two thresholds for your shipment: €22 for IGI (tax) and €150 for customs duties. Shipments from the USA are treated as third-country imports, so these thresholds apply to the total CIF value (item cost + shipping + insurance).

Your shipment to Andorra is exempt from customs duties if the total value stays under €150, as duties typically apply only to shipments exceeding this threshold. While specific item exemptions aren't clearly defined, duty rates for categories like electronics and clothing typically range from 0% to 12% depending on the product's HS code classification.

The 4.5% IGI is applied to the CIF value (cost of item, insurance, and freight) plus any customs duties you owe. The duty is added to the CIF value first, and the IGI rate is then applied to that combined total.

Yes, carriers like DHL or FedEx often charge clearance and disbursement fees for processing your shipment through customs. These can range from €15 to €20 on top of taxes and duties.

Gifts sent privately may qualify for a higher threshold of around €45, but this is strictly at the customs officer's discretion. Commercial shipments generally follow the standard €22 IGI threshold.

The Customs Department of Andorra (Duana d'Andorra) collects all applicable IGI and customs duties upon entry. The carrier usually pays these on your behalf and collects them from you before final delivery.

You can estimate costs by adding 4.5% IGI and potential duty rates (0-12%) to your item value plus shipping, then adding carrier fees of roughly €15–€20. However, final charges are determined by Andorran customs upon arrival.
