Driving Directions - Entering from Spain

While approaching Andorra, you will pass from the last Spanish village called La Seu d'urgell, at this point you are just 10kms. away from Andorra (clearly signed, mostly everywhere):
 

At the border, beuarocratic formalities hardly exist. You keep driving slowly passing through the Police Cabins alongside the road, unless halted by a police officer, which is rare, you need not bother about showing the documents. After the Police cabins, during the office hours, you may see a couple of customs officers, who halt one vehilce every 100, on random basis. If you not carrying more than €6000 per adult or valuables eqv. you need not bother, rest of the EEC regulations apply.
