โš ๏ธCommon Reasons France Long-Stay Visitor Visa (VLS-TS Visiteur) Applications Are Refused6

  • !
    Insufficient proof of stable, sufficient resources to live in France for the year without working โ€” the visitor visa prohibits any professional activity.
  • !
    The signed undertaking not to work is missing, or there are doubts the applicant will respect the no-work condition.
  • !
    No proof of accommodation for the stay, or inadequate travel medical insurance.
  • !
    An incomplete or inconsistent file, or a passport with insufficient validity.
  • !
    Doubts about the purpose of the long stay or the intention to leave at the end of the authorised period.
  • !
    A threat to public order, a relevant criminal record, a prior overstay, or false statements or forged documents.

Refusal grounds are at the discretion of the deciding officer and can change. This list is informational โ€” always verify current requirements at the official government portal.
