The active residence allows you to live in a small country with a great quality of life

There are many reasons why you may want to make the move and decide to apply for an active residence in Andorra, the small country of the Pyrenees.

One of the main reasons, without a doubt, is the enormous natural beauty that the country of the Pyrenees possesses. Its mountains, forests, fauna, lakes and rivers mean that each part of the country follows a real postcard that you will want to mark.

And don't forget to mention that the winter season is one of the most popular destinations in Europe, thanks to the spectacular mountains and ski resorts that the small country has to offer, perfect to enjoy during all the seasons of the year.

Moreover, Andorran society and culture have ancient traditions that the successive generations have been concerned to preserve and enhance over the years. The history of Andorra has always been a country of welcome, as is demonstrated by the large number of active residents who live in the Principality.

The way of life of the Andorran society is based on the well-being of the people and the quality of life that they can enjoy in their daily life. If we talk about one of the topics that interests more to any individual, the health, we can emphasize that it encapsulates the world-wide ranking, thanks to the maximum efficiency of the sanitary system, the health of a public hospital and the free election of the medical personnel.

If you decide to apply for your active residence in Andorra, for your family, you can choose one of the 3 educational systems that the country offers: Andorra, Spanish or French. The British College of Andorra is also a centre which offers a wide range of courses for resident students.

The will to live in Andorra has grown exponentially in the last few years

Andorra offers much more than a natural environment that can be aged. The advantages of living in the small country of the Pyrenees go beyond its environment, since some of the aspects that are most appreciated by its inhabitants are the security, the climate, the leisure and legal offer or the fiscal advantages that the Andorran laws allow.

For example, it should be noted that the tax rates applied by Andorra are the lowest in the world, with a tax on personal income tax (IRPF) of a maximum of 10% for the highest income. The tax on sales is limited to 4.5%, the tax on companies is between 2 and 10%, there is no tax on successions or inheritances and the contribution to social security is among the lowest in Europe.
