Aside from ski, Andorra is famous for duty free shopping. Every year around 8 million Spaniards and French visit Andorra for shopping. Andorra is known for its tax-free shopping but in reality, most sales made within the country’s borders attract a 4.5% VAT or value-added tax and there are no taxes on imports.

Andorra la Vella is the capital of Andorra, where you will find a huge array of shops selling mainly perfume, alcohol, cigarettes, tobacco, electrical goods, jewelry and others all at low duty-free prices. When shopping, ensure that you are getting a bargain price. However, beware that you will not exceed the duty-free limits or else you will end up paying taxes at the border.
