The Andorra national beach soccer team represents Andorra in international beach soccer competitions and is controlled by the Federació Andorrana de Futbol (Andorran Football Federation), the governing body for football in Andorra.

Andorra made their debut in 2008 at the World Cup qualifiers.[1] Despite being a small nation, Andorra have been a regular competitor on the international circuit, competing in every season of the Euro Beach Soccer League since their debut (bar 2010). However the team has only managed to record one win from around 30 games played in their history so far, versus Norway in a 2010 exhibition tournament.[2] Andorra compete in Division B of the EBSL.
