In 2015, Andorra amended the criminal code by introducing three new articles (121bis, 134bis and 157bis) covering, respectively, trafficking for the purpose of organ removal, trafficking for the purpose of forced labour, slavery and servitude, and trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation. These offences refer to national and foreign victims. The previous legislation only covered trafficking of irregular migrants for the exploitation of their work.

Investigations and suspects

The national authorities reported that no cases of trafficking in persons in any form have been registered in Andorra during the period between 2012 and 2015.

Additional information

The local authorities responsible for the issue of abandoned and trafficked children recorded 66 criminal cases, including cases concerning 24 children trafficked abroad and repatriated from other EU countries. Once repatriated, most of these children are hosted in crisis centers for child victims of violence and human trafficking. Bulgaria’s National Action Plan against Human Trafficking is developed by the National Commission for Combating Trafficking in Human Beings (NCCTHB). It strongly emphasises local policies to combat human trafficking, advancement of the work of the established local commissions and expansion of the prevention activities among adolescents, their parents and teachers, ethnic minorities and at border check points.
