To buy a coffee truck in Andorra, choose an EU-homologated N1 chassis with a Certificate of Conformity (COC) so it clears customs and ITV, then budget €35k–€90k for a compliant build plus 4.5% IGI on import/equipment. If you’re foreign-owned, form a Societat Limitada (min. €3,000 capital) and obtain foreign investment authorization, then open a bank account, register the trade (Registre de Comerç), sign up for IGI, and enroll with CASS. Secure a sanitary authorization from the Ministry of Health with an HACCP plan, water certificates, LPG/electrical conformity, a 6 kg ABC extinguisher; spec onboard grey-water tanks and grease control with disposal at approved points. Get each parish’s permits where you trade: Autorització de venda ambulant and ocupació de via pública (e.g., Andorra la Vella, Escaldes), or concession agreements with ski areas (Grandvalira, Pal-Arinsal) and event organizers. Import by buying in Spain/France with CE-marked equipment; if converting, insist on builder documentation for individual homologation. Decision criteria: low-noise generator or shore-power inlet, 2-group machine on 16 A/230 V, winterized plumbing for −10 °C, and water filtration. Set up card acquiring with Crèdit Andorrà, MoraBanc, or Andbank, price with IGI included, and bilingual (CA/ES) signage. Lead time: 6–12 weeks; secure locations before ordering.
