Client Alert – Simplification of the validation of the long stay visa equivalent to a residence permit – December 19, 2018

This Decree simplifies the formalities related to the validation of the long stay visa equivalent to a residence permit (VLS-TS) following the arrival in France of a foreign citizen by setting up a paperless visa validation process. This formality will be applicable to the validation of all VLS-TS, but does not replace the medical appointment and the signature of the Republican Integration Contract which are required in some cases.
