Tourist Visa Requirements
We are Sri Lankan Nationals who are residing in Saudi Arabia on Saudi
Arabian Resident Visa (Iqama). I'm employed in a Bank in Saudi Arabia.


My family and I, we wish to travel to France (Paris) in late May 2013 for
One week and we would greatly appreciate if you could kindly help us to
clarify the following documentation requirements.

a) Employment letter:
I will be supporting my family during the tour. As such, should I produce
only the employment letter (indicating my salary as well) or does the Visa
office require bank statments as well.

b) Health Insurance for at least 60 days:
My family is presently covered by the health insurance scheme provided by
my employer. This scheme is automatically renewed every year, before its
expiry on 30th of June. Kindly clarify whether this health insurance
coverage (to be expired on 30.06.2013) is acceptable for visa purposes, as
we intend to stay in France only for One week, and we plan to return from
France during early June.

please reply for this as we r sending e mails and trying to contact the visa facilitating office for last few days and none of them is replying or answering

Enquiry
Dear Sirs,

I tried to call French Consulate Jeddah for getting the requirements for renewing French Passport. But the Person attended the phone was ill mannered and unhelpful at all. His slang looks like an Egyptian (may be)

Also i tried to surf your web pages for the requirements for renewing French Passport, I am unable to locate any.

Kind regards,
Hameed Rahma

Airside Transit Visa
My children are studying in USA and holding Green Cards. They came here to spend some time on new year they are going back to USA. Their flight from Jeddah Paris then Chicago. Lufthansa said you can not touch 2 ports in europe with Green Card. What a non-sense and lame excuse.. Now I wanted to take French transit visa for them. They ask you bring the application forms before 12:00 noon. If we don't get the visa today then I don't know we would lose today's flight.If Mr. Issa Maraut can help us? My son is there in French counsulate.
