A compliant photo for your residence permit
The residence permit and resident card photo follows the same biometric standards as the ID card, required by the ANEF (the French digital administration for foreign nationals) and the ANTS. We crop your photo to the 35 × 45 mm format, apply a light background and check every criterion to secure your application at the prefecture or online.
First application, renewal or change of status
The file you get works for every residence procedure: first application, renewal, multi-year residence permit or ten-year resident card. You can print it or use the digital version, depending on the procedure.
