Hi - we are Canadians who are looking to purchase a motorhome in the EU, import it into Andorra and register it on MT plates. I have read through the relevant sections of the Llei del Codi de la Circulacié. I have also tried messaging Andorran Customs and an Andorran insurance company, but have not received a response. Can anyone point me towards the correct offices that I should contact and perhaps suggest some insurance firms? Thanks! Frank in Toronto .
Send me a private message. I'll help you. I've done it for a couple times already and about to do it soon again.

Perhaps you should post the information here so that others may benefit from it.
Hello,
See this website. Am an Andorran resident for a long time, I was able to get a Matricula Temporal plate,for a new car, AFTER I got my Residence Permit in this country, I think you cannot get this Andorran registration plate, if you are passing through, or not -resident in this country. The low taxes here on vehicles would be too attractive for foreigners, and know that the Principality is not a member of the European Community .....
Best Regards. Â

Matricula Temporal is specifically intended for non residents as well as residents who have a legitimate need for a temporary registration. And from experience, no one at the municipal edifice where all of the documents and verifications are handled, asked any question or cared at all about foreign residency, foreign tax obligations, etc. Nothing of the sort. See the latest regulations, published 01 Sept 2021 here:
Article 23. MatrÃcula temporal andorrana
1. L’MT es reserva als vehicles que circulen temporalment pel territori del Principat i l’estranger, i són propietat de no residents a Andorra.

3. Els vehicles que es vulguin matricular amb una MT andorrana han de tenir una antiguitat mà xima desde la data de fabricació:
