Ai-je besoin d'un visa pour Paris, si mon vol de correspondance s'arrête à Paris pendant 24 heures et que je souhaite me rendre à Paris pendant ces 24 heures ? J'ai un visa américain B1. Je vais voyager de San Francisco à Bangalore (Inde) via Paris. Je suis titulaire d'un passeport indien. Si oui, quelle est la procédure à suivre pour obtenir ce visa ?
(Je présume que vous faites référence à l'aéroport de Paris Charles De GaulleCDG et non à l'OrlyORY de Paris qui a des règles différentes. Je présume également que vous n'êtes pas en correspondance avec un vol passant par un autre pays Schengen, car cela modifiera également les exigences)
En tant que citoyen indien, avec un visa américain et sur le chemin du retour des États-Unis, vous pouvez “transiter sans visa” (TWOV) par CDG, tant que votre séjour dans le pays ne dépasse pas exactement 24 heures (sur la base des horaires d'atterrissage et de départ de vos vols). Si votre séjour dépasse les 24 heures, même d'une minute, vous ne pourrez pas utiliser le TWOV.
TWOV ne vous permet pas de passer le contrôle des passeports (c'est-à-dire l'immigration), et ne vous permet donc pas de quitter l'aéroport. Si votre séjour est supérieur à 24 heures ou si vous souhaitez quitter l'aéroport, vous devrez demander un visa France-Schengen “court séjour” .
Si vous avez l'intention d'entrer dans le pays (la France dans ce cas), vous avez besoin d'un visa avant de voyager (l'ambassade conseille un minimum de 15 jours avant le voyage) Centres de demande de visa pour la France
