FRENCH VISA

Obtaining a visa is the first chapter of your administrative life abroad. Next, you will need to go to the Préfecture to apply for your residence card in order to be able to stay in France for as long as you’d like.

Please be aware that a visit to the Préfecture is a recurring administrative event when living in France, especially at the beginning. Afterwards, you can opt for a multi-year resident card (carte de résident pluriannuelle), or even apply for French nationality.

An interpreter can assist you with these procedures so that you can answer the Préfecture official questions in French and fill in all the required forms for the residence permit application.

Our sworn translation agency is located in the 8th District of Paris, in the heart of the embassy and consulate district and minutes away from Parc Monceau and the Arc de Triomphe.

Our team is available to accept your original documents on site and by appointment Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. We also offer consultations by telephone, email, chat, and WhatsApp.

A sworn translation does not have the same value as a certified translation. For your marriage application, don’t make the mistake of ordering any other translation than a sworn translation completed by a translator registered at a Court of Appeal, because it will unfortunately end up costing you… twice as much!

For Apostille and legalization requests, we’re here to help. Davron Translations can also assist in obtaining these documents in France and abroad.
