Brexit card renewals in France: which prefectures have already set up websites?

Calvados, Lot and Dordogne are among the areas where British residents can use new simple procedure

Some prefectures have set up standardised online procedures for renewing five-year Brexit WA cards
Published Modified

Several French departments now have a new standardised online process for renewing a five-year Brexit Withdrawal Agreement card.

You can read our full article about the process, and why this was done, at this link

The following are the prefectures that we identified as having launched the new process by the end of September. 

Others are expected to follow.

Prefecture websites 

Following the 'new' standardised procedure:

Meurthe-et-Moselle (prefecture siteDS page )

Lot (prefecture siteDS page)

Cantal (Prefecture siteDS page)

Calvados (Prefecture siteDS page)

Dordogne (Prefecture siteDS page)

The prefecture of the Gironde told The Connexion: "The prefecture will put in place a specific form on the online application 'Démarches Simplifiées' as was asked for by the Direction Générale des Etrangers en France". 

Its communications team told us its own prefecture website will be updated "as soon as it is ready". 

The prefecture of Oise has set up a DS page but we do not yet see any information on its own website to the effect that this should be used yet. 

The prefecture of Morbihan states in a "foreign people's news" section of its website that it is working on a 'specific procedure' for WA renewals which will include a dedicated booking service to obtain a prefecture appointment slot and that residents must not in the meantime book an appointment via its standard appointments page.
