Heh, Northern Spaniards as me would have a longass trip to Andorra to get tax-free devices. And some people in the Castilles/Galicia did the same... in Portugal.


I've never been to Andorra but it seems very strange, like a few streets shopping mall / free trade zone?? I've heard from Spaniards about going there and they said it's not a good place to go on vacation lol


It was a place to get cheap electronics, tobaco and alcohol because of being a tax haven. OFC it was forbidden to get an amount of goods over an X quantity because you could have been fined as a smuggler.
