Euh... voilà je pensais avoir compris mais là je suis plus trés sûre de moi...!!!!🤪🤪🤪
Dois-je oui ou non faire une demande de visa pour passer deux semaines en Inde?!!!!! (Andaman)
Si tu diffères de moi, loin de me nuire, tu m'enrichis...
OUI ABSOLUMENT OUI TU ES OBLIGÉE DE FAIRE UN VISA EN INDE
et meme si tu ne restai sur place que quelques heures (comme les croisiere qui font une escale 1 jour )
Aparna
Bien venu au club !
OUI il faut un visa !!
Essai la galère si tu pars bientôt carça prend dutant !!
Je suis bien placé pour en parler car je pars le 11 avril et je n'ai toujours pas mon passeport, condition sine et quoi none, pour avoir le Visa...
C'est la fête, comme il chante l'autre
Il faut pas s'enerver, ça va ch'arranger ( Ilplilpli )
whouiiiiii fo un visa ... et au moins 15 jours de delais ... mais cela semble assez aleatoire car moi je l'ai toujours eu en moins
de 10 jours aller retour par courrier direct a l'ambassade ... peut etre qu'il me connaissent now hihihihihihi
mais ATTENTION cela a changé on ne peut plus passer par l'ambassade !!!
Posté par Eric le jeudi 7 février 2008 à 19:38 ça fait cinq fois que je vais en Inde, j'ai patienté des heures les fois précédente devant et dans le consulat rue Albéric Magnard face à des caricatures de bureaucrates léthargiques et désagréables, n'ayant strictement aucun sens du service public!!! Et maintenant, on a affaire à une boite du nom de VFS qui ne répond pas au téléphone!!! J'ai personnellement vu a deux reprise des candidats au voyage se faire refouler sous prétexte que le "quota de visas" du jour était atteint!!!si si!! Donc mieux vaut être prévenu! Et en plus, au lieu d'être à 50 euros, ce qui est deja pas mal, on vous colle en plus 12 euros de frais pour la dite société! Et 18 euros par passeport de frais de retour... a quoi il faut ajouter les frais pour faire établir un chèque certifié si on envoie la demande par la poste!!! Et, cerise sur le gateau, il faut faire une pré-demande de visa en ligne(sympa pour ceux qui n'ont pas internet, puis remplir la demande de visa proprement dite. Voilà, c'est tout simple! Et, j'oublais, pour le visa en urgence, c'est une quarantaine d'euros en plus! Franchement, si l'Inde ne veut plus de touristes, autant le faire savoir clairement tout de suite!!!! Donc, pour résumer, il faut s'armer de patience, au traiter avec une boite cmme action visa(aux alentours de 90 euros le visa quand même...) Personnellement, bien que j'aime beaucoup ce pays, je n'exclue pas l'éventualité de changer ma destination si ça continue, cette manière de faire est parfaitement indigne d'un tel pays. Voilà, j'ai écris ce que j'avais sur le coeur, je vous invite à faire comme moi, cad à téléphoner à l'office du tourisme indien à Paris pour leur expliquer que ce n'est pas la manière de faire venir des touristes!!! n° de tel: 01.45.23.30.45 N'hésitez pas, s'il y a beaucoup de protestations, il y aura peut être un revirement! bonne chance à tous!
en cas d'urgence passer peut etre par action visa
bon sejour

euh !!! je ne faisais que citer un post pris sur le forum du GR pour seulement informer du changement tout recent
concernant les demandes de visa pour l'inde ... je ne prend donc pas ton attaque "stupide" pour moi
mais je vais prendre la defence de la citation et surtout critiquer ton post inutil
1) on est pas en train de parler des services de l'ambassade de france en inde
comme si cela avait un rapport, faut il toujours essayer d'opposer "les cons" aux eventuels "autres cons "
2) mais meme si c'était le cas es tu a meme de nous preciser les delais et la procedure mis en place par notre ambassade
3) tu dévies bien evidement peut etre sur les difficultes concernant non pas les modalités d'obtention mais plutot des criteres d'obtention
4) connais tu le nombre de touriste indien qui visitent la france ???
5) et le nombre de demande refusée, les motifs ??? ce qui en soit n'a pas de rapport avec les services de l'ambassade
6) il est clair que beaucoup plus d'indien ont envie de rester definitivement en france que de francais en inde !!! hihihihihihi
7) serieux il doit y avoir une embrouille a l'ambassade d'inde pour qu'ils mettent en place une societe exterieure
8) peut etre que ce n'est en fait qu'une société ecran pour eviter les embrouilles ou gagner plus et mieux nos euros !!!
9) il est regretable que les indiens a l'ambassade d'inde a paris ne soient pas plus malin pour assurer un service impecable, rapide
et surtout facturé au prix des services d'action visa and Co. tous le monde payerai et serieux avec internet on pourait faire cela facile.
fo vraiment pas avoir envie de ce faire de l'argent facile. ce n'est pas tant le prix mais plutot les difficultés et les contraintes qui pose problemes ici
10) j'ai la meme critique pour l'ambassade d'indonesie a paris qui elle n'acepte plus aucune demande par courrier ... ils ont peut etre des actions chez action visa !!! ... et une experience fabuleuse faite faire vous meme votre visa a l'ambassade du myamar a bangkok !!! grandiose hihihihihi
11) si vous chercher un pti job facile sur paris: creez votre société de demande de visa par correspondance a prix cassés !!!! avec internet et la poste ca doit etre trop facil ...
perso je n'ai pas envie de me mettre dans la peau d'un indien ... ca fait mon 3 eme voyage la bas et je n'accroche pas (je n'accrocherai jamais !!!) avec eux ... inutil de me demander pourkoi ... ni pourkoi j y retourne ... sauf a avoir la meme mentalité bornée, la meme mauvaise foi, la meme facon de prendre les autres pour des débiles profonds et surtout la meme volonté de vouloir toujours avoir raison ... hihihihihihi
1) l'Ambassade de France utilise aussi les services AVS
2) il ne s'agit pas de compétence ni ne connerie de la part des gens, mais de formalités entre les deux pays.
3) les indiens qui viennent en France n 'y viennent pas pour des motifs économiques dans la grande majorité des cas, et n'ont pas envie d'y rester ! ils nous prennent pour des dingues !
4) oui, on se demande pourquoi tu y retournes puisque de toute façon tu n'as rien compris !
ca y est encore et toujours un humanoïde plus intelligent que la moyenne ...
heureusement que notre ambassade ne privilegie pas des queues interminables de soi disant "touristes" commissionnés sur les trottoirs des 4 heures du mat pour faire une demande de visa ...
y a t'il sincerement quelque chose a comprendre à l'inde ... sauf qu'il n 'y a rien a comprendre ce qui est surement le plus verifiable dans ce pays si tellement multiculturel bla bla bla .... hihihihihi
et en plus ils nous prennent pour des dingues ... serieux !!! on n' a pas du rencontrer les meme indiens en tout cas pas ceux qui on les moyens de voyager ... de la a penser qu'ils aiment vivre dans leur pays ... peut etre dans des mini villes fermées protegées tout confort ...
l'indien de la rue a une tres bonne vision de son pays et de ces concitoyens sûrement plus realiste d'ailleurs que le francais sur les francais !!! c'est peut etre aussi pour cela que j'y retourne .... hihihihihihi
Euh...🤪
Merci je m'en suis occupée...
Je les aurai dans 6 à 7 jours.... Et pour moi ca ne fonctionne pas pareil étant donné que je vis en Suède! 😉 Mais je suis allée à l'ambassade d'Inde hier, mon dossier est fait j'ai plus qu'à attendre... Elle m'a dit que ca prendrait qu'une semaine, à part si j'ai un casier judiciaire ou si je suis une criminelle terroriste... Je pense que ca va aller...😛 Espérons car nous devons partir le 28!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone,
I have to leave for Perth, Australia in a week, for 7 days, and I couldn’t get my international driver’s permit due to processing and delivery delays.
The information I’ve found about whether an international permit is required is contradictory. Some sources say you need one, others say you don’t.
Could anyone let me know if an international driver’s permit is necessary to rent a car in Australia (Perth), or if a French license is enough for a 7-day rental?
hi everyone,
I need to apply for a new eTA for Canada.
do I need the number from my old eTA or not?
because I can’t find my old eTA number anymore.
thanks for your replies, have a great weekend
Hi there,
I know there are similar topics here and elsewhere, but they’re a few years old, and I need an up-to-date answer to make sure I don’t throw over 1000 € out the window. Thanks for your patience.
I’m planning a trip from France to Alberta/British Columbia, and I’m unsure about which bank card to use for the security deposit with the rental company (I’m thinking of going with AVIS).
I contacted Avis Canada, and they told me a credit card is absolutely required. I asked my bank for a credit card (a *real* credit card), but they only offered me a deferred debit card.
My question: For a rental with Avis Canada, is a Gold International Mastercard deferred debit card usable for the security deposit needed to finalize the rental? Is the "CREDIT" label enough? (Some cards say "CREDIT" and others say "CARTE DE CREDIT"—seems minor, but it’s actually a big deal in how the card works.)
I’ve seen conflicting info everywhere I look... My bank says it’s *usually* okay (the deferred debit card), while Avis Canada insists it *must* be a credit card, not debit—even when I mention the deferred debit card.
I know the whole credit card concept is already confusing, and on top of that, some sites say a deferred debit card counts as a credit card, while others say it doesn’t.
Thanks to anyone who can share a recent experience!
Have a great day
Hello everyone,
Could a resident of Benin (Cotonou) kindly let me know which is the best mobile phone and internet service provider?
Thank you very much,

Hi,
I’m bringing Seresta, an anxiolytic (tranquilizer) from the benzodiazepine family,
to help me sleep.
I’ll have the prescription with me.
Will this be a problem at customs, and do I need to declare it?
Same question for antibiotics?
Thanks a bunch!
Hi everyone,
I’ll explain my situation.
Unfortunately, I lost my passport, and I only realized it two weeks before my departure for a humanitarian mission in Libya. I’m a nurse, and this mission really means a lot to me.
First, I applied for an emergency passport, but it was denied by the Val-d'Oise prefecture on the grounds that a planned humanitarian mission wasn’t considered an urgent reason.
So, I submitted a biometric passport application on July 20th. Since then, the tracking has been stuck, and the town hall can’t (or won’t) give me any clear information. Every time I call, I get a different story. The last update I received was that the passport had been produced since July 23rd with a status of "about to be shipped," but nothing since then.
I’ve managed to push my departure back to next Tuesday at the latest, but I’m starting to really panic.
Have any of you submitted an application around July 20th, especially in Val-d'Oise (95)? How long did you wait between the passport being produced and it being available at the town hall? Is it normal for this step to take this long?
This mission means so much to me. I had everything organized, and I’m also supposed to attend a friend’s wedding right after near the border.
Thanks so much to those who take the time to respond or share their experience. 😔
Can anyone tell me exactly if a passport "valid for the duration of the stay" is enough, or does it need to be valid for 6 months after the trip?
I checked the embassy’s website, but that info is missing.
Hi there,
I’ll be arriving in Seoul on November 18th after spending about a month in India.
Do you know if I’ll need to fill out any additional documents besides the e-arrival card?
Thanks in advance for your tips!
I’m a bit embarrassed because I need to travel to Quebec from February 27th to March 13th. I’m a regular visitor to Canada—this will be my 10th trip since 1997, plus a year as a permanent resident (2000–2001) and a cross-country run from Vancouver to Halifax in 2011. So, I’m definitely not a terrorist!
But since our last trip in July 2015, they’ve introduced this eTA thing. Seems more like a way to make money than to actually secure Canada, if you ask me, but anyway, that’s not the point.
I applied for an eTA for myself, my wife, and our two kids. They all got approved within hours, but not me! I was asked to create a GC key and then an IRCC account, which I did. Normally, you get news within 72 hours, but since Monday, January 15th, nothing!
In the "message" section of the account, it says "explanation letter (required)" with a deadline of January 25th, but I can’t find any explanation anywhere—despite searching the Canadian government website and Google. No links, nothing!
I’ve emailed them but haven’t heard back yet. I’m thinking of calling the Canadian embassy in Paris tomorrow. Even though I’m not stressing yet, it’d be a bummer if everyone else got to go without me!
If anyone’s had this issue before or knows what this explanation letter is about, I’d love to hear more.
hi there
I’m heading to Seoul in September, and to do that I need to get a travel authorization that we apply for through K-ETA....... turns out I can (barely, I admit) fill out the form up to the address of our "stay location," but every address I’ve entered has been rejected by the system. I’ve tried my hotel, the Lotte Hotel (which is well-known in Seoul), the airport—basically, I’ve entered at least 20 addresses, all rejected....
So, to anyone who’s successfully gotten the authorization, could you tell me which address you used to get that "elusive" approval?...
Hi there,
I’m heading to Senegal in January for a month and was wondering if I just need my French driver’s license or if I should get an international permit?

I’m heading to Laos next spring, but I have a question about the Thai arrival/departure form. I’ll be flying PAR-BKK, then taking the train to Laos (so exiting Thailand), and later re-entering Thailand by train to catch my return flight. Do I need to fill out two forms in this case?
Hi there,
I have a 9-seater passenger vehicle that I use for my business in Paris, transporting people.
I’m planning to go to Algeria with my family.
The vehicle registration lists my company as the owner.
Can I get a TPD (Temporary Admission Document)?
Will I need a KBis extract or a power of attorney?!?
Thanks for your help.
Worst case, I can add my personal name as a co-owner on the registration, but that would be a real shame!
Hi,
I’m writing to ask for some info—I’ve heard that you **must** have travel insurance to land in Zanzibar.

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hi, are there any travelers who’ve recently crossed the border between Karakalpakstan (Uzbekistan) and Beineu in Kazakhstan?
It was closed for a while.
Thanks for any info!
I bought a one-way flight (Ryanair) and a return flight (EasyJet) to spend a week in Morocco in April.
My passport expires 3 weeks after the return date.
Some websites say the passport must be valid for 3 months at the time of entry.
However, it will still be valid both on entry and return, but its validity will only be 1 month at the time of entry (and 3 weeks on the return date, everything prepaid).
It's an individual family trip.
The consulate can't give me an answer—they're still looking into it (really!)
Last year, we stayed for 3 months in Thailand, north of Khao Lak, and were able to benefit from the 2-month visa exemption, renewable for one month by going to Takua Pa to validate a 1-month extension (1,900 baht).
This year, it’s a disaster for us—not only were we planning a 4-month stay, adding a visa run in between (which some say is quite risky), but the law is apparently changing in the coming months with the return of the 1-month exemption (plus the usual 1-month option). So, we looked into applying for a 6-month multiple-entry visa, allowing a maximum of 60 consecutive days in Thailand. However, I can’t find anywhere the minimum time required outside Thailand between two stays—do any of you have an idea?
Thanks for the info! If you’d like tips on Khao Lak and the surrounding areas, we’ve got some experience, though things change fast!
Cheers,
Bruno.
My partner, our 8-year-old daughter, and I are going on vacation to Gex.
We’ve decided to spend one day in Switzerland and another in Italy. Will we need ID (national ID card or passport)? Do we also need ID for our daughter?
Hello,
We’ll soon be moving to Madagascar long-term.
As a French national, I need to obtain a short-stay visa that can be converted to a long-stay one. To do this, I have to send the required documents to the Madagascar embassy in Paris.
No issues with that procedure so far.
If I get this visa, once I arrive in Madagascar, I’ll need to provide the same documents to the Ministry of the Interior in Anosy. I’m trying to find an email address or website for the Ministry to check which documents I need to submit (I think they ask for additional ones).
If you have any info on this, I’d appreciate your replies.
Best regards,
M. Buisson Eric
I’d like to know if anyone has already applied for a private visa to Russia with an invitation from a Russian resident.
I traveled earlier this year with an e-visa, but since I want to stay longer, I’ll be visiting my friend who lives in eastern Russia.
For the visa application, does the invitation need to be on an official paper form issued by the Russian ministry? And most importantly, do I need to present the original for the application, or is there an electronic version that can be sent directly to the consulate in France?
Thanks for any info if you’ve gone through this process before!
I filled out the B2 form to apply for a visa, created an account on Atvis to pay the visa fees and schedule a meet-up, but every time I try to pay with my Boursobank Visa 1st card, they refuse the payment with a message telling me to check my details (address), even though everything is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening, or maybe they don’t accept Visa cards? Are you aware of this?
Thanks for your feedback!
Elisabeth
There are rumors going around about the ETA: it must absolutely be on your smartphone in the "ETA" app.
Paper documents might not be accepted.
Is this real or just a hoax?
Thanks, I’m leaving in 3 weeks. My passport is good to go and my ETA is still valid for a year, but I only printed the email I received.
Thanks everyone.
Hi there,
We need to apply for a B2 visa because we visited Iran in 2018. It currently costs $185, but they’re planning an additional $250 fee per person for the same visa—it’s been approved but not yet implemented. Does anyone know when this fee will take effect?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
In November, we're heading off on a 4-month trip. We'll be landing in China and plan to leave the country via a land border into Vietnam.
I’ve read that China may ask for proof of exit within 30 days (flight ticket or other reservation). Since we’d be leaving by land, I’m wondering how this works in practice.
Has anyone here been in this situation recently?
Did the airline ask for an exit ticket before boarding?
Did Chinese authorities require proof upon arrival?
Is a train/bus ticket to Vietnam sufficient?
Is a cancelable or flexible reservation accepted?
Hi there,
Just a question that’s probably been asked before (though usually the other way around for my situation :))
My wife and I are heading to the US.
On her ticket, it only has her maiden name (e.g., Martine DUPOND).
On her passport, it’s written as Martine DUPOND épouse AVRY.
No issues for travel, I hope I did the right thing with the ticket?
Then for the ESTA, is just Martine DUPOND enough, or do I need to include the "épouse AVRY" part like on the passport?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
I’m spending a few days in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and would like to cross the Argentine border to make a loop toward Salta and then return to Chile to drop off the rental car.
I’ve heard that crossing the border can be tricky!
Is it possible with a rental company’s authorization? Which company, and at what cost?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Best regards,
Arnale
I saw on the French Embassy in Peru’s website and the Peruvian Consulate in Paris’s site that the rule is to have a passport valid for 6 months *after the arrival date* (not the return date).
I arrive in Peru on August 13, 2019 (for about twelve days), and my passport is valid until February 16, 2020.
That’s 6 months and 3 days after my arrival date in Peru. In my opinion, I’m good to go.
But could I still be denied entry if they say I don’t cover the return date or that I’m too close to the 6-month mark?
I read on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that it’s possible to apply for a temporary driving permit in China, valid for 1 month.
I’m planning to rent a car (without a driver) to explore part of the country next August, so I was wondering:
Has anyone here already gone through this process upon arrival?
How long do the formalities take on the spot?
Is it possible to handle these steps in advance, before arriving in China?
