Key Points

  • New figures from the Department of Statistics show 2,080 more residents as of 31 October 2025, with growth concentrated in mountain parishes and.

Andorra’s resident population reached 88,881 people at the end of October 2025, the country’s statistics office reported, an increase of 2,080 residents (2.4%) compared with the same date in 2024. The growth is not uniform across the seven parishes: Canillo saw the fastest rise in percentage terms, adding 411 residents (6.9%), followed by Escaldes‑Engordany (+373) and La Massana (+371). Encamp (+314), Andorra la Vella (+303) and Ordino (+178) also recorded notable gains, while Sant Julià de Lòria posted the smallest increase (+130, 1.3%).

The rise is driven largely by people classified as “other nationalities” in the statistics, a cohort that expanded by 1,224 people (8.5%). Within that group, the number of Colombian nationals climbed sharply (around +30%), and Peruvian nationals rose by close to 28%. Nationals from Spain (+373, +1.8%), Andorra (+370, +0.9%) and France (+243, +6.3%) also increased. By contrast, the Portuguese national community fell by 130 people (‑1.5%).

Age structure remained broadly stable: 73.4% of the population is aged 15–64, children under 15 represent 10.9%, and those over 64 account for 15.8%.

In addition to the resident estimate, municipal registers — which list people formally enrolled in local censuses, including some who may not be currently living in the country — recorded 93,745 names on 31 October 2025. That figure is 1.2% higher than a year earlier and reduces the gap between registered and estimated residents to roughly 5.5%, the smallest differential reported in recent years.

The statistics underscore continued population growth in Andorra, concentrated in specific parishes and bolstered by migration from several non‑EU countries. Authorities have published the full breakdowns by parish, age and nationality for October 2025 but have not provided further explanation for the shifts in particular national groups.
