The current legal framework for immigration develops what many know as passive residence. This residence authorization does not allow the investor to have a work permit but, nevertheless, it does allow the development of economic activities through capital companies in which the investor is a shareholder and beneficiary of the result of the same by means of the distribution of the dividend. However, he may not hold a remunerated position in the company in question. In this sense, the investor can carry out the management of his assets, make investments in all types of assets and receive earned income from other jurisdictions.

These authorizations are very attractive due to the need to stay only 90 days in the Principality, being even able to aspire to tax residence in case of a correct planning based on the tax residence criteria of Andorra, the country of origin or other countries where there are relevant economic interests.

This residence is ideal for international entrepreneurs who receive income from work or economic activities originating outside the Principality, as well as for individuals seeking to generate passive income from their assets (which they typically divest in their home country and reinvest in the Principality of Andorra). This residence status is accessible through an investment in the country of €1,000,000, to which a €50,000 state fee must be added, along with €12,000 for each dependent.

The Non-Profit residence is mainly addressed to people who have assets or businesses at international level and who decide to become residents in Andorra only to live, with the possibility to manage their assets and businesses.
