Resume rules in Andorra
What employers in Andorra expect on a Currículum Vitae (CV), what the law lets them ask for, and where the two disagree.
Call it a CV for Andorra, a resume for Andorra, or Currículum Vitae: it's the same document.
This is research, not legal advice. Employment and data protection law changes, state and provincial rules matter in federal countries, and practice varies by industry and seniority. Each entry shows when it was looked up and how confident we are. Where nothing reliable was published it says Not found rather than a guess.

Where this came from
Looked up 2026-08-15. Independently checked 2026-08-15. High confidence. Result of that check: Confirmed.
Notes: Small, multilingual labor market (Catalan, Spanish, French). Photo expected for permits (35x45mm official size) but CV photo not legally required; Europass format recommended. LQPD is new (2022); governs personal data but doesn't prescribe CV format. Tripartite language flexibility; language selection depends on employer. Work permit requirements and CV requirements are separate documents.
