Public car parks, private facilities and on-street spaces have different access, price and vehicle restrictions. Check the signs, opening hours and height limits; no parking area can promise that a vehicle will be completely secure.
Blue and green on-street zones are commonly paid parking, but hours, maximum stays, exemptions and rates are set locally. The parking meter and posted signs for that space are the right reference.
- Check the posted morning charging hours rather than assuming one schedule applies across every parish.
- Check afternoon, evening, weekend and holiday conditions separately.
- Monday to Saturday
These are usually free on Sundays and national holidays, especially when it comes to parking in Andorra la Vella or Escaldes-Engordany.
How long you will want to park your vehicle might take some thinking outside of the box when it comes to these street parking zones.
Time limits and minimum payments vary. As one dated example, Andorra la Vella’s 2026 tax ordinance distinguishes blue and green zones and Andorran versus foreign vehicle plates. Do not extrapolate that tariff to every comú.
Use a designated accessible space only with an accepted permit and under its conditions. An EV charging space can have a separate charging fee, parking limit and requirement to be actively charging; do not assume every electric car gets two free hours everywhere.
If you want to park your vehicle for a longer period of time, definitely use one of the off-street communal car parks. Space sizes vary, so check that the car park you choose comfortably accommodates your vehicle.
For car parks in each of the communes, take a look at these maps:
- Andorra la Vella
- Canillo
- Encamp
- Escaldes-Engordany
- La Massana
- Ordino
- Sant Julià de Lòria
If you want to avoid your car being dinged by other people, or nudged up against by those parking in front and behind you, consider one of the private parking facilities. They are located all around the country and though not cheap, they aren’t as steeply priced as you might expect when compared with Spain and beyond.
Most importantly, park within the marked spaces and check the signs for payment requirements and time limits.
Read the notice carefully: cancelling a particular parking notice through the meter, paying a fine early and appealing it are different procedures. Any deadline or reduction depends on the authority and infringement, rather than a countrywide guaranteed 50% discount within 24 hours.
