A gestoria is the Andorran firm that centralises your administrative, tax and legal formalities : company formation, residency, filings, banking. It is the single point of contact between you and the Principality’s authorities.
Inherited from the tradition of the gestories administratives of Andorra and Spain, the gestoria is far more than a formalities provider : it is the control tower of your Andorran project.
Every authority has its own forms, documents and timelines — and works in Catalan. The gestoria orchestrates it all : it prepares the files, submits them, follows their progress, chases when needed, and coordinates the other parties involved — notary, bank, accounting firm.
Whether it is a company formation, a transfer of tax residency or both at once, it turns a multi-window process into a single, clearly marked path — in your language.
Foreign-investment authorisation — the passport for non-resident founders.
Company registration, company name, filing of annual accounts.
Active or passive residence permits, renewals — including Catalan A1 level.
Affiliation to Andorran social security for directors and employees.
Corporate tax, IGI and IRPF filings — the tax calendar kept, year after year.
Six areas of action, one common thread : sparing you administrative back-and-forth and securing every step.
Foreign-investment authorisation, name reservation, bylaws, notary appointment, registration with the Registre de Comerç : the gestoria steers the incorporation of your SL or SA from start to finish, generally within 8 to 12 weeks.
→ Your company, turnkeyPreparing the active or passive residency file, booking the appointment with Immigració, follow-up through to the residence card, then support with renewals.
→ A complete file the first timeTax advice, calendar of obligations, corporate tax, IGI and IRPF filings — with the bookkeeping handled by our partner accounting firm, under single coordination.
→ Effortless compliancePreparing the account-opening file, presenting it to the bank, responding to compliance requests : a smooth banking process, because it was prepared.
→ An account opened with peace of mindCASS registration, driving licence exchange, lease or property purchase, schooling : the gestoria makes settling in easier for the whole family.
→ A simplified arrivalAnnual accounts, register taxes, renewals, monitoring of reforms — such as Llei 2/2026 — so that your structure stays compliant year after year.
→ A steady course, over timeThree complementary professions. The gestoria coordinates ; the lawyer advises on the law ; the notary authenticates. Well coordinated, they save weeks.
| Professional | Their role | When to use them |
|---|---|---|
| Gestoria | Centralises and carries out administrative, tax and immigration formalities ; coordinates the notary, bank and accounting firm. | From the start of the project, then all year round. |
| Lawyer | In-depth legal advice, complex contracts, representation in disputes. | For a specific legal structure or litigation. |
| Notary | Authenticates deeds : company incorporation, property purchases, powers of attorney. | At key steps — the gestoria prepares the file and arranges the appointment. |
| Accounting firm | Bookkeeping, annual accounts, corporate tax and IGI returns. | All year round ; we operate it with our partner accounting firm. |
| A serious gestoria knows precisely where its scope ends and brings in the right professional at the right time — one of its greatest added values. | ||
Andorran taxation is remarkably light. But your set-up still needs to be structured to benefit from it fully — which is precisely the gestoria’s job.
These advantages are not decreed : they are secured. The Franco-Andorran treaty of 2 April 2013, in force since 2015, sets out the rules — effective tax residency, the 183 day rule, allocation of taxation. The gestoria’s role : to align your timeline, your company’s form and your remuneration structure so that the gap is real, documented and lasting.
Five objective criteria — verifiable in a few minutes — let you choose with confidence. Here is the checklist, and how Andorre Gestoria answers it, point by point.
One last piece of advice, the simplest : prompt a first conversation. In thirty minutes, you’ll know whether the right questions are being asked, whether the answers are costed and sourced, and whether you’re offered a written roadmap rather than general promises. It’s the most reliable test — and it commits you to nothing.

A gestoria is the Andorran firm that centralises your administrative, tax and legal formalities : company formation, residency, filings, banking. It serves as the single point of contact between you and the Principality’s authorities and coordinates the other parties involved (notary, bank, accounting firm).
No, there is no legal obligation. But the formalities take place in Catalan, with several authorities that have precise requirements ; a gestoria secures every submission, avoids incomplete files and saves precious weeks — almost all new foreign residents appoint one.
Two components : the official fee schedules in force (around 958 € registration for an SL, an annual tax of around 200 €, notary generally between 500 and 3 000 € excl. VAT), identical regardless of the firm, and professional fees, set out in a personalised quote depending on your project.
The gestoria steers and carries out the day-to-day administrative, tax and immigration formalities ; the lawyer handles in-depth legal advice, complex contracts and litigation. The two professions are complementary : a good gestoria calls on the right professional at the right time.
Andorran authorities work in Catalan. At Andorre Gestoria, support is provided in six languages — French, Spanish, Catalan, English, Portuguese and Arabic — and we handle the interface with the authorities in their official language.
