French tourist visa application form and fees.

First of all, you must prepare the following information: 1. Application form: You can download the short-term visa application form from the website of the French Embassy. 2. Passport: Copy the identity page and all visa records in the past few years. 3. Air ticket order: Any air ticket agent can issue a booking form without spending money, and the booked ticket can be cancelled without loss. 4. Proof of housing: hotels can make reservations through the Internet. If they are only for visas, they can find the websites of luxury hotels to make reservations directly. Generally, better hotels can accept credit cards (international cards issued by domestic banks will do) for reservations, and there is no handling fee, and there is no penalty for canceling reservations three or four days in advance at the latest. Many booking websites or cheap small hotels can't do this. 5. Proof of financial resources: find a bank and deposit a one-month fixed deposit, generally RMB 3, is enough. The bank will issue a Certificate of Deposit, in both Chinese and English. After completing the visa, return the original deposit certificate (a copy left by the embassy) to the bank, and you can take out the money in advance. 6. Medical insurance: Pacific, Taikang and AIA all have short-term accidental injury and medical assistance insurance abroad, with slightly different prices. The 2-day insurance starts from 12 yuan. 7. The original household registration book and copies of all pages with contents. 8. Proof of work unit: It is best to use the letterhead of the company, and write: XXX is an employee of our company, and his position is XXX. It is hereby approved that he will take a vacation from XX to XX. The name, position, unit address and contact telephone number of the person in charge who issued the certificate on the department below (for the verification of the embassy) shall be signed and sealed. 9. A copy of the company's business license. 1. Write your personal address and telephone number in Chinese on a piece of white paper (I don't know why, maybe it's handwriting identification).

All copies must be made on A4 copy paper. All documents must be submitted in person, and the visa officer will ask you some questions.
