- Note
- Due on a renewal requested after the deadline, unless force majeure or a valid visa applies (CESEDA L436-5), paid in tax stamps on top of the card cost. A first residence title obtained after entering without the required visa, or without a card after the legal delay, carries the other regularisation fee, visa.regularisation_fee (CESEDA L436-4). The official pages do not settle which of the two applies to a card requested late at the end of a VLS-TS.
