Good morning here. I finally had the time to fill my application form but i have some questions sirs/ma there is a paragraph that ask if i would be visiting another European state and i mentioned additional two Belgium and Germany. So i was trying to book for accommodate on booking.com i figured my intended stay was three weeks . And if i would be visiting other places..booking my accomodation with booking.com straight for three weeks ..does that make sense or i should just book for the period i am planning to stay in france..i was a bit confused at this point.also i realized i could not complete my booking with booking.com without payment...any other way i can proceed with this.
Pls i need help with all i asked.
Thanks

So 2 ways to deal with this - Sometimes it is not necessary to say you are going to be visiting other countries. Since if you get the schengen visa you can visit anywhere in Europe...

2nd if you do feel like you want to indicate that, then you must prove you have lots of more money for moving around and all that... You can book on booking.com without having to pay, you only need to select the option from the filter that shows properties that do not require upfront payment...

Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by Supernatural198: 3:14pm On May 23

Has anyone been able to get a response from TLS in the past one month using the Contact Us form ?

I have used it three times in the past one month, no response.

Honestly, I have never heard from anyone about an appeal working. It takes time and you never ever get any response or whatsoever from them since the documents all need to be sent to Cedex in France... If your wife is pregnant and already in France - you do know the easiest way is for her to invite you from France and that way you are more guaranteed to get the visa. She only just needs to go to her prefecture and submit some documents and that's it... Will ring you in a couple of hours.

Good afternoon everyone,

Please who else is having a hard time to book an appointment for document submission at TLS. I have been trying to book an appointment throughout the month of May, but no slots have been made open, yet.

MY POV : Because of our various busy daily schedules, it will be nearly impossible for each applicant waiting for slots to open up to be on the sites 24hrs trying to catch when the French consular would make dates available - but if we can keep each other updated depending on our various free timelines to be on the site - it will be difficult to miss the window when booking slots will be made available.

Thank you/

Are you applying as first timer or frequent traveller ?

From Lagos or Abuja?

Good morning boss.

Yes, I am a first time traveller.

Good morning Boss.

From Lagos. Yes it's basically the same thing. The way I understand it, after successfully booking an appointment - you proceed to TLS to submit documents and also have your biometrics taken on the pre-booked date.

Please, how were you able to successfully book for accommodation? I’ve been having this difficulty since last week. I’m just tired. No success at all with booking for me.
Mine is a long-stay visa not visit. I think this is where the difference is. I am accompanying a talent passport visa holder as a spouse.

Mine too is long stay visa (student visa). Money is not even the issue, it’s proving difficult to obtain accommodation for me.

OluwaT2026:
Wow! This is serious. I will keep trying. Can you assist me with the time frame on Saturday when you were able to get a date. Plus are you a first time traveler?

All the best boss.
