Law 16/2013, of 10 October, amending the law 9/2012, May 31, to amend the law of immigration because the General Council in its session of October 10th, 2013 has approved the following: reason In the session of 31 May 2012, the General Council approved the law 9/2012 , May 31, to amend the law of immigration, by which, among other things, they create new types of immigration authorizations that completed the whole force. However, the passage of this law on modification of the law 9/2012, May 31, to amend the law of immigration, has been considered a necessity to create, among others, three types of new immigration permits.

It is planned to create a work permit without residence, motivated by the necessity of the Andorran companies to hire staff who work and reside outside of Andorra. Likewise it creates a work permit on their own, which is motivated by the fact of developing the law 10/2012, June 21, foreign investment in the Principality of Andorra, as well as the modification contained in the same Law relative to the letter a of paragraph 1 of article 5, of the law 6/2008, May 15, on the exercise of liberal professions and educational institutions and professional associations , with the aim of ensuring that the immigration regulations do not constitute an obstacle to those changes in legislation. At the same time, taking into account the shortcomings of the law in this sense, it has created a residence permit for entry into nursing homes or private medical or therapeutic care centers in private, which allows the holder to reside for more than 90 days per calendar year in the Principality, being admitted in a nursing or medical or therapeutic care privately.

Similarly, this law has wanted to take into account the new needs of the current economic situation and, for this purpose, are allowed all kinds of work of short duration, not exceeding 30 calendar days per calendar year. Together, this law expands the possibility of computing, within the period of permanent residence and effective, a shift of employment abroad agreed with the pattern in the framework of the realization of certain projects with a duration of no more than 12 months may be extended if it is sufficiently justified. With the same purpose it is anticipated that, in the event that the employer pay the rate generated by the provision of one of the administrative services mentioned in sections 3, 5, 6, 7, 9 and 23 of article 152, and within a maximum period of one month, proves that the foreign person for the contract which it has pleased the rate has desisted from his working place unilaterally , you can request another immigration authorization of the same characteristics as the previous one without having to pay the fee, and with respect, however, the criteria of social cohesion provided for in article 36 of the law so the other requirements established by the law and regulations in force.

Equally, it has regulated the need to expand the authorization until now in force for studies, training or work experience research, and for sports training activities, and establishes the possibility of allowing training practices, sports training and research are paid within the framework of agreements awarded with schools or foreign sports.

To have more control with regard to immigration, is expected to be the obligation of holders of authorisations of residence and work, and for reasons of rally of register of the parish in which reside within a maximum period of 3 months from the date of obtaining the application for immigration, and noting the same within 3 months for other holders of authorisations of immigration that until now had this obligation ,-although the deadline was a year, to keep up with the fingers deadlines.

This Law also made other modifications necessary to implement duly detailed modifications above, as well as other necessary to clarify certain aspects that could lead to confusion of law 9/2012, May 31, to amend the law of immigration.

In conclusion, this modification of the law 9/2012, May 31, to amend the immigration law fits the needs of the country's immigration to the new legislative regulations in force, as well as the current economic situation, and resolves some drawbacks which in practice was devoted to the current system, without modifying the structure and the current immigration system in the Principality.
