Are you a Pakistani national married to a French citizen or a legal resident of France and wish to join your spouse abroad? The France Spouse Visa, also known as the Long-Stay Visa for Family Reunification, allows spouses to reunite and live together in France under French immigration law. As the CEO of SJ Law Experts and an experienced immigration lawyer in Islamabad, I have guided many couples through the legal complexities of spouse visa applications for France.

The France Spouse Visa is a long-stay visa (Visa de Long Séjour – VLS-TS) issued to foreign spouses of:
- French citizens, or
- Non-EU residents legally residing in France (with a valid residence permit or long-term visa)
This visa allows the spouse to live in France for more than 90 days, with the option to apply for a residence permit (Carte de Séjour) and eventually pursue permanent residency or French nationality.
