Long isolated and impoverished, mountainous Andorra has achieved
considerable prosperity since World War II through its tourist industry.
Many immigrants (legal and illegal) are attracted to the thriving economy
with its lack of income taxes.
Tourism, the mainstay of Andorra's tiny, well-to-do economy, accounts for
roughly 80% of GDP. An estimated 9 million tourists visit annually,
attracted by Andorra's duty-free status and by its summer and winter
resorts. Andorra's comparative advantage has recently eroded as the
economies of neighboring France and Spain have been opened up, providing
broader availability of goods and lower tariffs. The banking sector, with
its "tax haven" status, also contributes substantially to the
economy. Agricultural production is limited - only 2% of the land is arable
- and most food has to be imported. The principal livestock activity is
sheep raising. Manufacturing output consists mainly of cigarettes, cigars,
and furniture. Andorra is a member of the EU Customs Union and is treated as
an EU member for trade in manufactured goods (no tariffs) and as a non-EU
member for agricultural products.
