Andorra Grants Record 1,187 Nationalities in 2025, Up 2.6% from 2024

A record 1,187 residents acquired Andorran nationality in 2025, according to Department of Statistics data. The figure marks a 2.6% increase from 2024 but remains 5.4% below the 2015 peak.

Of these, 719 cases—60.6%—came with full political rights, including 456 by origin and 263 via naturalisation, where applicants renounced prior citizenships. Following European migration statistics standards, which track nationality changes among residents only, residency accounted for 79.1% of naturalisations, marriage 17.1%, and other routes 3.8%. Among residency cases, 77.9% involved 20 or more years in the country.

Gender breakdowns showed balance in residency grants, with men at 51.4% and women at 48.6%. Marriage-based awards favoured women at 57.8%, compared to men at 42.2%.

The remaining 463 grants—39%—were provisional: 316 pending proof of prior nationality renunciation, and 147 awaiting confirmation upon reaching adulthood.

One source reported the average age of new citizens falling between 45 and 59 years, with a 154.5% rise in grants to the 50-54 age group.

Nationality losses totalled 154, down 12% from 2024, with 95.5% due to deaths, 1.9% from nationality loss or expired provisional status, and 2.6% from voluntary renunciations.
