Without an active appointment for a Schengen visa to France, you cannot submit your Biometrics or Visa documents. The same holds true for Miami-area residents applying for visa’s.

Walk-ins are not allowed at either the VFS Global office processing your visa application or the offices handling it since they handle your application and contain sensitive information.

Only the French Consulate in Miami is authorized to make judgements about visa’s, and it is they who assess visa applications received in the United States of America.

Scheduling a Schengen appointment may seem simple, however mistakes like these have resulted in several trips being postponed:

• Appointment made in the wrong jurisdiction.
• A wrong consulate was used for the appointment.
• Due to the delay in organising one, there isn’t a Schengen visa appointment accessible right now.

If you want to save time and hassle, use the following services to outsource your appointment scheduling.

There are 10 VFS Global locations, including Bermuda, The Bahamas, The Cayman Islands, The Turks and Caicos Islands, The U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico, where those who need visa’s from the US can make an appointment.

The application deadline for a short-stay visa is 15 days prior to your departure.
It’s one month in advance for a long-stay visa.

Applications for short-term visa’s must be submitted more than six months before the intended departure date.
Applications for long-term visa’s must be submitted more than three months prior to the departure date.

Can I rapidly arrange an appointment for France visa?

In a technical sense, no. However, we have dealt with Schengen visa service providers like travelvisabookings.com or Schengenvisaexperts.com, and thanks to their connections with the VFS, they were able to schedule appointments for us. This indicates that you can use their service right away if you need it. If they are unable to set you up with an appointment, you have the option of getting a full refund.

In contrast, they can suggest an alternative plan of action you could follow to ensure a trouble-free flight.
