Naturalisation – Important information
From 1 January 2026, in accordance with Decree No. 2025-648 of 15 July 2025 amending Decree No. 93-1362 of 30 December 1993, as amended, relating to declarations of nationality, decisions on naturalisation, reinstatement, loss, forfeiture and withdrawal of French nationality, the statement of comparability issued by the ENIC-NARIC France centre will no longer be valid for naturalisation applications.
Given our current processing times, applications submitted in this specific context will no longer be accepted as of 1 October 2025. Applications submitted before this date will be processed according to the current procedure.
To access your level of French in this context, you must present an officially recognised test, such as the TCF IRN.
