The Principality of Andorra, a small country between Spain and France, has two postage stamp-issuing authorities: a French administration and a Spanish administration. Both types of stamps are valid for use in Andorra.
The Spanish began issuing stamps for Andorra in 1929; the French in 1932. Prior to this, regular French stamps were used in Andorra.
Telling which administration a given Andorran stamp comes from can be difficult, however: while most Spanish administration stamps use the Catalan name, PRINCIPAT D’ANDORRA, and most French administration stamps use the French name, VALEES D’ANDORRE, this is not always the case; French Andorran stamps sometimes also use the Catalan phrase. A stamp catalog is indispensable for properly identifying many Andorran stamps.
