Apply for a visa to visit France in Suva

Visa applications submitted by residents of Fiji have to be lodged at the VFS Global/TT Services visa centre, by appointment only.

Applications are processed by the French embassy in Singapore. The decision to issue or refuse a visa is made by the Consular section of the French Embassy only.

  • For short stay visa applications, you must lodge your application 15 days minimum before the scheduled date of departure.
  • For long stay visa applications, you must lodge your application 1 month minimum before the scheduled date of departure.
