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!

Salam Aleykoum/Hello everyone
I need help renewing my passport as well as those of my wife and children. I can't reach the consulate for my district (Besançon).
I already have my biometric Algerian passport, but it expired in March 2024. Do I need to provide a 12S form for passport renewal? If so, what documents are required for the 12S?
Thanks for your help

Hi, I went to submit my visa application to visit my partner’s family. We’re religiously married in France. I provided an accommodation certificate, pay slips, travel insurance, and a document stating we’re religiously married—signed, etc. I want to travel with my partner’s son, who has both Algerian and French passports and is a minor. So, I told them he lives with us. Since his father has custody, they didn’t charge me anything and said they’d call me back because my file is going to a committee. I also told them I needed to leave by July 15th. This is the Lille consulate—has this ever happened to any of you?,

I’d really like to get more explanations about my situation.
I’m a student and my problem is military service—I didn’t register from the start and I didn’t do the medical visit, which means I’m not entitled to a deferment or anything. But I know I’m not being actively searched because I have a friend who confirmed it from the gendarmerie office. Plus, I only have a call-up order, alhamdulillah. I have the chance to travel to live in another country, and what I want to know is: when I arrive at the airport here in Algiers, will customs stop me and not let me through because of all this?

Hi,
Has anyone had recent experience applying for a tourist visa to Algeria from Quebec, specifically at the consulate in Montreal?
How long does it take? The consulate’s website says 2 to 3 weeks. Is that accurate?
Is it possible to apply by mail? A travel agency told me it’s unrealistic.
What’s the maximum number of days you’ve been granted?
Thanks,
Pierre Racine

Hi everyone, and happy Ramadan to those celebrating.
I wanted to ask—I just submitted my application yesterday for a deferment from military service. Here’s my situation:
I already had a deferment in Algeria that expired last September. I arrived in France just before that to start my studies, got my consular card at the Paris consulate, and yesterday I submitted my application for a deferment on the grounds that I’m a student. I’m 24, turning 25 soon. The issue: the commission has already met this year, and I was told my deferment won’t be available until 2026—that I have to come back again in September to justify the next academic year. When I asked the guy (who was in a hurry) if I could return to Algeria with this deposit receipt without any issues at the border police (PAF), he said yes, no problem. But I’m not sure I trust that answer.
Has anyone here been in the same situation and could shed some light? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I’m heading to the Algerian Sahara. I’m taking a flight from Paris to Djanet with a layover in Algiers.
Can anyone tell me how the entry visa process works?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi everyone,
We’re French and we’d like to visit Algeria, especially Kabylie, for a stay of about ten days.
We’ll be renting a car
(which are the best car rental agencies?)
It seems that to get a tourist visa for less than 90 days, we need to show proof of accommodation + a flight confirmation from France to Algiers. (Which hotels in Algiers do you recommend? And which airlines?)
What should we do if the visa is ultimately refused? It’s not ideal if the response takes 2 months and we have to cancel the hotel and flight.
What do you suggest we do? What are the best practices?
Thanks in advance! Patrick from Nantes

Hi everyone,
As the owner of a Peugeot 404 in Algeria, I have the opportunity to renovate it in France. My question is whether, administratively, I’m allowed to take my car out in a rusty, worn state and bring it back in great condition—will customs, the technical service, or any other administration have an issue with that?
Thanks in advance for your feedback and insights. Have a great day
