About travel insurance can I buy from Nigeria or it has to be the uk where I am resident?somebody should answer this in the same situation right now because I love to buy from nigeria than euro because it’s more expensive

This question is difficult to answer but let me give my opinion, Is advisable to get travel insurance from the country you are traveling from and from the country your visa application will be processed. Most of us apply visa from Nigeria and we have our travel insurance from Nigera.

Yes you qualified.
African countries and Dubai is not counted as travel history, most sticker visas are qualified, go with the copy of your turkey visa to VFS

On the vfs site is not among oh

Do they list all the countries to qualify as travel history? I’m talking based on experience with VFS when submitting applications they remove any stamp visa and accept sticker visa which implies that most African countries and Dubai uses stamp on arrival not sticker visa on your passport so they are out of the qualification.
If you have sticker visa on your passport to any country use it as travel history.
My opinion though

Yes I understand but I’m talking about when booking for the appointment.

No mater how they digitalize the application process they will still need physical biometrics for applicants. UK have option of uploading documents online but applicants still go for biometric

Biometrics doesn't have to be physical with the current advancement in digitalisation. They may not need VFS anymore if their digital process is advanced.

Hello guys, please i need advice. I was recently refused a short-stay France visa and the reason was "Justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not provided". I submitted everything i should have except for an itinerary for my 6-day trip. I knew that i should have included an itinerary but my sponsor convinced me it was not necessary. The refusal letter states that i may appeal. What are my chances of getting my refusal overturned? or should i make a fresh application and include the itinerary?

Hello gurus in the house. I just got my first France visa. I followed this tutorial here from everyone and God made it possible. My question is that do have to present Covid 19 negative test? And I saw a paper attached to my visa that I should present myself to VFS upon return. Is it mandatory I go there when I get back?

Turkey is on its own and its not on the list except you want to take a risk
What risk are you talking about ?
You visit VFS to submit your visa application and document they remove the one they don’t need, it that a risk ?

The fact you have been given an option of an appeal, then you stand a better chance for your refusal status to be overturned, however you have to write a very convincing appeal email to the embassy email address at visas.lagos-fslt@diplomatie.gouv.fr . Give it a short as I'm a living witness. Believe me, you don't need a lawyer to pull this.

List of documents. I submitted 31st of January and it was issued on the 7th o February and I got it by ups on 8. 1 week interval.

I am a company owner but yet I still pay myself monthly salary. Tax card. Land documents, marriage, daughter birth certificate, my house tenancy agreement. CAC. Just make you demonstrate strong ties to Nigeria. And make you you run the account like you are the owner. Only my salary that comes into the account nothing else and I use it as daily activities. So it shows I’m spending my salary.

Almost all refusal letter in French embassy comes with right to appeal and most time is a waste of time to appeal.
Appeal letter are written in French language and submitted in Nante france not in lagos . The directive Is written on the refusal letter

I was denied my first visa application in 2019 i appeal through my sponsor in France they only acknowledge receipt of the letter and did not hear from them again until reapply in 2020 I have gotten French visa twice since them.

You can appeal but most often is a waste of time. Your appeal letter will be written in French language and will be submitted in Nante France not in Nigeria. You might likely not get any response, is advisable to repackage your application well and reapply .
