Hi everyone! I have a few questions about the DTV application:

- The website doesn’t list my city in France when I try to enter my home address.

So I used my sister’s address instead (different city).

But all my freelance-related documents show my real address (the one that’s missing from the site.)

➡️ Will that be a problem?

- I’m applying from Bali and I’m French. I know I need to translate all the documents,

but I don’t want to pay 40€ per page like the websites suggest.

I plan to translate them myself.

➡️ Has anyone done this?

➡️ Is it okay to only translate the main parts of the bank statements (not every small transaction full of codes and letters)?

- The 15,000€ are not on my current account, but on a savings account (called “Livret A” in France).

It still shows up at the end of my bank statement.

➡️ Is that acceptable?

Thanks so much for your help!

Really appreciate any advice!

I'm in currently in Thailand and planning to go to Vientiane next month, I already got an appointment for Nov 12th. On their website it says that any documents in languages other than Thai or English must be translated and notarized. My bank statement is in French, I can get it translated in Bangkok but the French embassy here won't notarize my bank statement. Anyone been in the same situation?

Here’s a question about July 1st from the other perspective:

Is anyone here a French national? Si oui, what is your understanding of the lift of the international travel ban to France from non-EU countries as of July 1st?

Do you believe an American who has been in Thailand since February will be able to fly with me to France on July 1st?

For me, logically, the answer is yes, since if it was announced that international travel will be open on July 1st from non-EU countries which are not in a state of epidemic, it shouldn’t matter the person’s nationality. Neither should it matter whether anyone needs to ”give enough time for Thai airport authorities to understand and apply our rules”. (eye roll..)

However, the Visa service of the French Embassy of Thailand is advising me not to travel before mid-July for this reason. What date in mid-July? who knows!.. I can’t keep going on changing travel dates, hotels, trains, etc. and plans for an arrival.. When I asked Visa Services about whether they were suggesting that my American friend would not be able to board the flight to France on July 1st, they replied Yes, that not only Thai authorities but the flight company agents would not allow American friend to take a flight on July 1st.

What is your take on what will really happen at the airport for us on July 1st? I feel that I need to make provisions for having to come back to the hotel upon being denied boarding.
