◆ Application conditions for immigrant visas

In order to reduce the number of foreign immigrants, the French government has very strict restrictions on foreigners who apply for entry as immigrants. Immediate family members of non-French citizens or foreign nationals, specially approved contract workers and political asylum seekers are not allowed to obtain immigration permits. Only those who meet the following conditions can be approved:

(1) French citizens' spouses, unmarried couples, children under the age of 2/kloc-0, parents, etc.

(2) spouses of foreigners who have obtained long-term residency and children under the age of 18;

(3) Accepting the employment of the employer, and the labor contract industry is approved by the Immigration Bureau;

(4) Refugees whose status has been approved and who have obtained the legal right of abode.

All foreign immigrants living in France can enjoy the right of family reunion.

The so-called family reunion means that foreign immigrants legally residing in France have the right to let their spouses and children live in France. Note that this refers to foreign immigrants, that is, foreigners who have the right to stay in France and have the right to work, not all foreigners who are legally resident. For example, the residence status of college students cannot allow foreign college students to enjoy the same family reunion rights.

In the case of polygamy, foreigners in France can only apply for the children of one of their official spouses to come to France.

The application for family reunification shall include all the spouses and minor children mentioned above. In other words, you can only apply for family reunion at a time, and you cannot apply for one person at a time. This is a principle, commonly known as the one-time family reunion principle.
