Tips to get an appointment faster
- Enable SMS and email alerts to be notified as soon as a slot opens up. Slots are often taken within minutes.
- Check the prefecture website very early in the morning (between 6am and 8am) or late in the evening: new slots are often released at these times.
- Prepare all your documents in advance. A complete file avoids back-and-forth trips and additional appointments.
- If your prefecture is overloaded, check sub-prefectures or neighboring departments that may offer the same procedures with shorter wait times.
- Avoid peak periods (September-October for residence permits, holiday periods for passports) if your procedure is not urgent.

Frequently asked questions
The average wait time depends on the procedure. For a residence permit (titre de sejour), expect between 2 weeks and 3 months depending on the period. For an ID card or passport, wait times are generally shorter, between 1 and 4 weeks. The data shown on this page is calculated in real time from our monitoring system.
The most effective method is to enable automatic alerts. Our service monitors slots 24/7 and notifies you immediately by SMS and email as soon as a spot opens up. Cancelled slots are often taken within minutes, so it is essential to be responsive.
No, wait times vary significantly by procedure. Appointments for residence permits are generally the most in-demand and therefore the longest to obtain. Procedures related to ID cards or passports are often more accessible. Check the per-procedure breakdown above for specific wait times.
The data is updated continuously. Our system monitors prefecture websites approximately every 30 seconds and recalculates statistics with each new slot detection. The averages shown therefore reflect the current situation.
For certain procedures such as passports or ID cards, you can indeed go to any equipped prefecture or town hall, even outside your department. For residence permits, however, you generally need to go to the prefecture of your place of residence.
