February 14, 2016
As of January 25th, 2016 patent applications can be filed in Andorra. Even though the patent law had been approved back in 1999, it had never entered into force.
The new patent law in 2014 and it enables the filing of patent applications in Catalan, Spanish, French and English (Catalan translation of the claims is required). The Andorran Patent and Trademark Office will conduct merely a formal examination of the application unless there is an evident lack of novelty.
