Once you have an appointment the process to get your passport renewed is very easy and they are very helpful! An advise - make sure to bring a passport photo as requested in the instructions. Unfortunately it is not the same as we use for US passports so make sure to take a measuring ruler or tape with you when having your picture taken. Actually wished they would still do it for you during your appointment as in the past. Merci 😊

The lady who helped me was charming, kind and efficient. I was so grateful for her help. She gave me time and service and I am so grateful to have been helped by her!

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! What a pleasant surprise. Apparently Julie Duhaut-Bedos, the French Consul General in Los Angeles, and her team have really breathed new life into this office. The online appointment system worked flawlessly and the subsequent visit really couldn't have been easier. Without exception everyone there was extremely nice, very thorough, and super professional. I had a number of needs, and Sandra and Regis in particular really went the extra mile to make sure everything was taken care of, and always with a smile. I wish there were more than 5 stars to give this great experience.

I went to renew my passport and Sandra took care of me. She is efficient, professional, all what I would wish for and more. In 10 min I was out all done. If I could give a ten stars I would! Really the process was painless. Nothing in common with the administration bureaucracy I used to experience before! Merci Sandra pour tout.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I don’t believe so but there’s a Walgreens across the street where you can get your photo taken for you. That’s what I did recently when applying for my French passport.

My husband’s sister passed away in Paris. Her apartment where she lived is been sold. We live in USA. They sent some documents to be notary signed and apostillé. Where we must go or do ? Thank you. Thank you. Than

Peter Lusby | Aug 26, 2021

Apostilles are issued by the California Secretary of State. Start by having the document notarized by a local Notary Public near you. Then go online to www.sos.ca.gov and follow their instructions for obtaining an Apostille. Alternatively, google "california apostille", and you will find plenty of companies offering to do it al for you, all for a modestly exhorbitant fee.

If you're talking about the Livret de la Famille, you're mother should have one. If not you need to contact the Mairie or city she was born in and request a certified copy. If she has not registered your birth then it's going to be a long process through them and then through the consulate.
