Ivorian Embassy & Consulates in France

At 102, avenue Raymond Poincaré, 75116 Paris, the Ivorian embassy represents Ivory Coast towards France. Its phone number and website are on its page.

Ivory Coast also has a consulate general in Paris and 2 consulates in Nancy and Lyon; consulates handle passports, civil registration and, for many countries, visa applications for their district.

Ivory Coast has 7 honorary consulates in France, in Toulouse, Rennes, Nice, Nancy, Marseille, Lille and Bordeaux; an honorary consul offers first help and passes documents on, but visas and passports are issued elsewhere.

French citizens need an electronic travel authorisation (ETA) for Ivory Coast, obtained online before travel, for stays of up to 90 days. The application is made online on the official portal of Ivory Coast, not at the Ivorian embassy.

In return, France has an embassy in Ivory Coast, in Abidjan.
