2025 Guide for Making an Appointment at the Paris Prefecture (75)

The Paris prefecture does not communicate in advance about the addition of new slots. These may appear at any time, following cancellations or the opening of new time periods.

You have two options:

• Manually check the site several times a day (time-consuming method)
• Use an alert service like RDVHUB that will notify you automatically

Generally, no. The Paris prefecture operates exclusively by appointment for almost all procedures.

However, there are a few exceptions:

• Emergency walk-in on Wednesday morning (for justified cases only)
• Receipt collection at the Gesvres annex (according to posted hours)
• Certain exceptional situations (check the prefecture website)

Arriving without an appointment outside these specific cases will systematically result in denied entry.

Unfortunately yes, this is a common situation in Paris due to very high demand. The Paris prefecture handles a considerable volume of cases, and available appointments are often taken within minutes, or even seconds.

However, slots are regularly added. The difficulty is being connected at the right time. That's why services like RDVHUB can significantly increase your chances of getting an appointment by alerting you immediately when a slot becomes available.

The RDVHUB service for the Paris prefecture works as follows:

1. You select the Paris prefecture (75) and the type of procedure you're interested in
2. You register your contact details (email and phone) and activate the service
3. Our system automatically checks appointment availability 24/7
4. As soon as a slot becomes available for your procedure, you instantly receive an SMS and email notification
5. You can then quickly connect to the prefecture website via the provided link and book the slot

This system allows you to react quickly, often in less than a minute, which is crucial because available slots are generally taken very quickly.

The documents to prepare depend on the type of procedure. Here are the items generally requested:

Important: The exact list of documents will be provided in your appointment confirmation email. Make sure you have ALL the required documents, as an incomplete file may result in a refusal.

Yes, the new system implemented in 2025 allows you to manage your appointments via your personal account on the Paris prefecture website.

3. Select the relevant appointment
4. Choose "Modify" or "Cancel"
