Okay. Did you get CROUS accomodation? You can write to your program coordinator to give you an attestation letter for your accommodation.

Hi guys, I have a few questions to ask pls

1. We are required to submit 3 months travel insurance - so what is the cost of the student insurance for 3 months?

2. Which are the recommended travel insurance companies in Nigeria?

3. After pre-consular interview is submission @ vfs. So how much is vfs collecting as visa fee for long stay study in France?

Okay, I did mine 3years ago, so let me try to do justice to your questions
1. You can always use aiico check out aiicoplc.com or type on Google travel insurance aiico, I don't remember the price but budget 10-15k

2. Check my answer in 1. Aiico still remain standard...

3. It was 42k last three years, the fee depend on the currency exchange... So I believe it should be like 50-55k.... Best.....

1) Three months travel insurance is required for your visa. The cost of Travel insurance varies depending on the Insurance company. Some go as high as 50k with different packages

2) Some notable names are Allianz, Aiico, Axamansard, IGI Insurance, etc. Allianz is the cheapest about #13,666 and it's recognised in Europe. You can send me a dm I can link you up with the Allianz contact.

3) If you register through the EEF porter, the Visa fee is 50 euro. VFS charge around 10k for their administrative services, due to the current pandemic and the need for social distancing and limited contact, VFS now charge a fee for courier service to return passport document to student in their homes. This fee may vary some can be around 7k. An estimate of the whole process should be about 40k.

Hello guys, is it possible to submit the same day at VFS, after the interview at Campus France?
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by flyway1: 10:22am On Aug 06, 2020
Not likely. The Campus France guys will book an appointment for you.

Open ticket. You can use turkish airline as it is valid for two days...

Business company?.. Is it in your name? If it is not, then a lot of paper work will be done...

Yes. If Campus france issues you the attestation letter. Sadly in developed countries like the United States, campus france interview does not exist at least this time.

Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by flyway1: 7:29pm On Aug 10, 2020
I guess I can answer my own question now shocked I went for submission today and I paid 36,970 (20,160 for visa fees, 13,710 for VFS fees, 2,700 for courier service within Abuja and 400 for SMS).

Some tips that may be useful:

1. Go with the print out of the letter from Campus France. It’s a silly thing that they wouldn’t look at the email on my phone and I have to actually print it out (in this digital age). angry

2. Arrive early. Forget the time for the appointment. They start allowing people in by 9 AM. My appointment was for 10 AM, I entered by 9:30 and as I collected my slip the guy at the counter told the security people: “last France for today!”. Not sure how much it meant though because I later saw someone for France submission after me. You don’t want to take chances though so just arrive early.

3. Go with at least 2 copies of all your documents (including passport data page). Do two colour printouts of the visa application form.

4. For the visa application form, make sure to attach the page with the receipt (barcode). It’s usually the last two pages.

Note: This is for Abuja VFS. Not sure what obtains in Lagos

Hello guys, with the International airports closed, how are we directing our itinerary for the visa process. Is it Lagos - France or Accra - France or how pls. It's very urgent.
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by Skymoore1004: 3:10pm On Aug 13, 2020
Lagos to France.

It doesn’t matter if Airports are closed or not. There’re evacuation flights for residents and student permit holders.

No me, my brother.
Reserved with Turkish airlines for $20 (72 hours). But you can use Emirates as well.

Just did not see dates for Emirates from Abuja.
