How to apply for a French visa?
There are all sorts of visa options available and choosing which one is the right one for you will depend on your individual circumstances. Visa requirements and parameters change relatively frequently and, if only for the sake of your sanity, we recommend using a visa specialist from the outset to navigate the process. It can be a very worthwhile investment in the long run, both in terms of time and money, to make sure you get off on the right path from the outset
How much does a French visa consultant cost?
Everyone's situation is different and their circumstances unique. As a result, the French Government have a range of different visa types available that they hope will facilitate everyone's journey through the process. These range from a long-stay visa that is relatively straightforward, through to an employment visa that will be a more involved process.
As a result, a visa consultant's charges will vary accordingly. For a standard long-stay visa, you might consider budgeting around €250pp for a visa consultants' assistance.
