Information about the泭Visa de Retour Pr矇fectoral
The泭Visa de Retour Pr矇fectoral泭is issued to the NON EU students泭who have been issued a first request-賊矇釵矇梯勳莽莽矇-泭賊矇釵矇梯勳莽莽矇 Premi癡re Demande.
This includes the NON-EU students who turned 18 and had to go through a residency application with SIS after being issued either a visa for Minor (Mineur scolaris矇) or a long stay student visa for under 18.
Same with the NON-EU students who used to hold a MAE card (diplomatic card issued by the French Foreign Affairs-泭Minist癡re des Affaires Etrang癡res), had to do a residency application with SIS since they gave French Authorities their card back (because they turned 18).
泭
In addition to the泭R矇cepiss矇 Premi癡re Demande, the泭Visa de Retour Pr矇fectoral泭authorizes the NON-EU to legally return France from travelling abroad.
The NON EU students must show the French borders:

IMPORTANT
Once the student is granted the泭Visa de Retour Pr矇fectoral泭by泭the French Authorities, they must immediately send SIS a copy at泭sisaup.edubefore they leave France, in order to update the residency procedure.
Since it may be a bit confusing for the NON-EU students to make a difference between a泭R矇cepiss矇 Premi癡re Demande泭and a泭賊矇釵矇梯勳莽莽矇泭(issued for a residency renewal), the students should feel free to contact SIS at泭sisaup.edu泭to clarify their situation.
