In fact, the whole process of processing a French tourist visa is quite simple, but for some people, it is really difficult, because France is a developed country, and there is a certain probability of refusing to sign. Even if your information is good sometimes, they may refuse to sign directly to you. Can the visa pass, Visa officers mainly look at the following points:

< UL >

have you ever been to a country as developed as France

are you married with children or divorced

How about assets under the name of

is there a stable job

registered residence sensitive area? p>

< / UL >

you can make a comprehensive comparison of the data to see what you don't meet. If these aspects are better, it's better. If there is one aspect that doesn't meet, it may be more difficult

5. Generally speaking, French visa proceres are cumbersome and require more information, which must be strictly followed. According to its regulations, all student visa who stay in France for more than three months are long-term visa. We exchange in Marseille business school for one semester, four months, and we have to apply for this kind of visa. According to the regulations of the French Consulate, to obtain such a student visa, you must first pass the interview evaluation of celA (Language Academic Evaluation Center) before you can enter the visa application process. The following is the whole process, including the main items and time-consuming of each process
the first step: notarization: because the evaluation of celA requires the notarization of academic degree, and the application for visa requires the notarization of birth, the first step is to go to the notary office to notarize these two items. Any notary office in Shanghai can handle it
materials required for birth notarization (all original) - when applying for a visa, you need:
1. ID of the person and household registration book
2. ID of both parents and household registration book
3. Birth certificate or one-child certificate - if not, The birth certificate can be opened in the local hospital
4. Marriage certificate of parents
5. Proof form of kinship provided by the father or mother's unit (form provided by the notary office)
6. Proof form of kinship provided by my school (form provided by the notary office) - for example, the file is in the school, You need to go to Minhang archives to fill in
7. Your father or mother should fill in the notarization certificate form (form provided by notary office)
8. Recent photos, 3 pieces, 2 inches
materials required for ecation notarization (all original)
1. ID, household register
2. Ecation certificate, Diploma
3. My school provides: work and study experience Certification Form (form provided by notary office) - if the file is in school, you need to go to Minhang archives to fill in
4. Recent photos, 3 pieces, 2 inches
remarks:
1. Please go to the notary office to make an appointment and get the form first, because the notary office implements the first responsibility system, and the person who receives you for the first time is the notary undertaker, If you have any questions, you can contact this person.
2. If you need two forms provided by the school, you need to go to the remote Minhang campus, and it will take about a week, please handle them in advance.
3. For comrades born before 1980s, there is no birth certificate, so you need to find some social relations, please look for them in advance.
4, It takes two weeks to translate French (the French visa office and celA accept the English translation)

Step 2: prepare the required form at Jiaotong University. Because the suspension of Jiaotong University is necessary for overseas exchange, you must fill in the approval form for suspension of graate students of Shanghai Jiaotong University and the approval form for students of Shanghai Jiaotong University to apply for going abroad for private purposes, In addition, because the notary office needs "work and study experience Certification Form" and "kinship Certification Form", if the archives are in Jiaotong University, when you go to Minhang archives to transfer the archives, you also need to fill in the approval form for students of Shanghai Jiaotong University to apply for going abroad for private purposes. And because these two approval forms need to be stamped in different offices, we paste these two forms of Jiaotong University to indicate the office where the stamp is stamped<
1. Approval form for suspension of study of graate students of Shanghai Jiaotong University
2. Approval form for students of Shanghai Jiaotong University to apply for going abroad for private purposes
remarks:
when the "management department of going abroad" is sealed, In addition:
1. A of the invitation letter from the exchange school + translation
2. A of the student ID card
3. A of the exchange project agreement
4, Mr. Chen will go to the archives office to fill in the two forms required by the notary office (one week)

Step 3: after all the notarial materials are ready, you can contact your notary to make an appointment to deliver the materials, and the single charge is 180 yuan. Notarization translation into English is faster than translation into French, as long as one week, the two prices are the same

Step 4 and step 5: students of celA evaluation of French ecation center should first register on the official website of celA to obtain personal page. http// www.chine.campusfrance.org/index.ip?locale=zh_ Cn is the best step to start when receiving the confirmation letter from the exchange school, because there are a lot of personal information to fill in on the celA center. In addition, the requirement of celA Center for international students to France is that they must have TEF or IELTS, which is a necessary condition< Materials required by celA:
1. ID
2. Passport
3. Pre registration certificate (notice of Exchange School)
4. Exchange project agreement (no original required)

6. IELTS transcript (if there is no materials, IELTS admission certificate is enough, Transcript is required for celA interview)
7. Notarization of the highest degree (Bachelor degree is enough)
8. MBA transcript (Jiaotong University version is enough, MBA office stamp, graate students do not need notarization)
9. MBA Certificate (Jiaotong University version is enough, MBA office stamp) all the materials provided, one original and one , EMS or yourself to the French Ecation Center, 200080 (2f, 297 Wusong Road, Hongkou District, near Hanyang Road) (Monday to Friday, 9:00-18:00). After celA receives all the information, it will evaluate it. Generally, it will notify the latest status in the personal registration page within 2 weeks. Please always go to the personal page to pay attention to the latest notice. If the materials are not complete, the missing materials will be listed on the Internet, as long as they are supplemented. If the materials are complete, you will be informed to choose the interview time. Interview in French or English, relatively simple, mainly ask some personal basic information, source of funds to study abroad, work experience, study plan in France, study plan after studying abroad and other questions. http：//bbs.studyfr.net/user/script/forum/view.asp?article_ Id = 24752 (the main question of celA interview) after the interview, celA will provide the "language and academic evaluation certificate", and then inform the next step of the signing process on the Internet. Generally, the time to send visa materials to the embassy will be informed within one week. Exchange students who exchange for one semester will not be blocked. So far, no one has been rejected in celA

Step 6: after the French embassy has prepared all the following materials, you can directly send the materials to the French Embassy according to the time notified by celA online
visa application materials:
1. Visa fee payment receipt (visa fee 50 euro, can only be paid in RMB cash, about 500 to 600 yuan)

7. Proof of residence in France.
8. Air ticket reservation form.

note:
among them:

5 - you only need to provide a 5W deposit certificate, which can be issued by any bank, For a visa with a period of less than 3 months,
6-A return ticket, tax receipt or contract for a previous job,
8-A return ticket time must be provided for a visa with a period of less than 6 months, In addition:
1. It is possible to ask for the transaction proof of the bank account in the last six months
2. All the materials provided, one original and one , are arranged in the above order
3. All the translations do not need to be translated by the translation company, You can translate by yourself. The office hours of study visa are only Monday and Wednesday. Therefore, if the materials are not complete on Wednesday, it will take another week to make up the materials, so we should pay attention to the time schele. In addition, e to the different personnel in different windows, there are some differences in the materials required to be prepared, which is also the reason why different students are asked different answers. Don't ask why. When you go to France and understand France, you will naturally understand. It takes two months to apply for a full visa. Generally, our departure date is in early September, which is also the opening date of French schools. So August is the busiest time for celA and the embassy. Please make preparations in advance, apply early and book air tickets early. The efficiency of France is not fast. There may be additional requirements for application materials, In order not to bring trouble to yourself, you must leave enough time, please pay attention to the schele of big housework. Of course, the process of handling is very time-consuming. At first glance, there are so many materials to be prepared, and I feel like I'm quitting. But after four months, I believe you will feel that the wonderful life of communication is worth exchanging with these early "pains". I would like to thank the two senior brothers who went to Marseille business school to exchange ideas last year. They gave me a lot of valuable information. I always "harass" them over and over again. They always took the trouble to give me answers, which made me avoid many detours! I also hope that this article can help younger martial brothers and younger martial sisters get visa smoothly, and open a good beginning for unforgettable communication life!
