Frequently asked questions
When should you renew your residence permit?
The renewal application must be filed between 4 months and 2 months before the permit's expiry date. Filing within this window ensures continuity of your rights thanks to the certificate issued after filing.
What is the residence permit renewal deadline?
The permit must be renewed before it expires, by filing the application 2 to 4 months beforehand. Processing by the prefecture can then take several weeks to several months depending on the department, so file as early as possible within the window.
What happens if my residence permit has already expired?
If your permit has expired, you must regularise your situation with your prefecture without delay. A late filing is still possible but may require additional documents and expose you to a period without a valid permit. Book an appointment as soon as possible.
Do you need a prefecture appointment to renew?
Many renewal procedures are done online on ANEF, but filing certain files or collecting the renewed permit requires a prefecture appointment. As slots are scarce, an automatic alert helps you secure one quickly.
