Hi nairalanders, i am planning to apply for a schengen tourist visa. But i am stuck in between italy and France. I am 30, single but engaged, been to South Africa in the year 2017 and i have been to Ghana as well that same year. I registered my business as an enterprise in the 2018. So i will know to know what's my chances of getting a France tourist visa and is it advisable that i book a prepaid accommodation or an oridnary reservation will be okay.

Should I use tourist visa?

Oke00700:

Could you please enlighten me about studying there? Is it worth it? In terms of getting a post graduate job & pursing residency after?

I’m looking to work part time jobs there to pay of my rent and expenses . I have money for tuition which is currently €3770 per year (Two years)

Is it easy to get a part time job without knowing how to speak french?

I’m already applying to enrol for a french programme here in Nigeria until I leave for studies.

I’m considering the U.K. and France but France because the tuition is cheaper.

Also what documents do I need for visa application?

Should I pay tuition fees before or after I arrive in France?

Can I use my brothers account with more than 10m?

I also have 2.8m in my account.

Also has anyone gotten a scholarship to study in France? How did you get it please

Please help

Thank you

Let me try and address your questions

1. Studying in a developed country and an European superpower is definitely worth it. After your Masters, you get a 1 year stay (called Carte de séjour - Recherche d'emploi/création d'entreprise or APS for short) and getting a job mostly depends on what you studied, skills and language (some international firms don't really care about the language but you need to have quality work experience from Nigeria). Once you a get a full time offer (CDI) you will be given a 4 year resident permit, afterwards you get a permanent residency (10 years permit)

2. You can get part-time English speaking jobs (Teaching, Babysitting, Tour Guides et al.. this site can help: https://job-in-france.babylangues.com/earn/job-description/)

3. Tuition in France is cheaper than the UK.. Yes, that is true.

4. On paying tuition fees; it depends on your school and the conditions to issue you an admission letter.

5. Yes, you can use your brother's account in addition to yours but it should come with a strong letter of support and commitment. On the documents needed, go through the thread.. it has been thoroughly dealt with.

6. On scholarships; PTDF & Total normally offer scholarships yearly to study in France. Also, there are scholarships offered by French Institutes (check this: https://www.campusfrance.org/en/bursaries-foreign-students)

You can select others and write Conference .

pufframmy:
if it conference pick business

Champora:
Yes, pick business. Business is the same thing as conference. When you're submitting your docs at VFS Lagos you'll be asked to fill a questionnaire. It costs 150 bucks to get inside VFS itself. On the questionnaire you'll also have to tick the business box if you're going for a conference.

I don't know if you can print that questionnaire on your own and fill, if possible, I don't know where it can be downloaded from. But nonetheless when you go to submit your documents you'll be asked to fill a complementary questionnaire for France visa.

HRprof:
Thanks to your responds.

Please is it right to tick accommodation prepaid on the application section of your stay, when its reserve without payment with the option to pay at the building ?

Thanks

Hello everyone,
Please, does anyone know much about getting Maltese tourist Visa in Abuja. And if they give Visa's and requirements.
That's the Schenghen I want to visit but if not then I can apply thru any other Schenghen state then get to Malta. Also, is there fixed no of months given for Schenghen for first timers like one month, two months or three months.
Thanks

Cyberknight:


That's it. "Verifiable" is the keyword.

You decide, and if you choose Airbnb accommodation, which is usually hosted by private individuals, I find it useful to drop your host a reminder that they might be getting a communication from immigration to verify that you have booked the place for the indicated dates.

P.S. Amsterdam banned Airbnb and short-term rentals in the main tourist areas last year, I think the ban is supposed to take effect this year.

CowbellY:


Can one submit an Airbnb for France/Portugal applications ?
