Apply by appointment through TLScontact in Nairobi. France-Visas produces the supporting-document list for your circumstances through its Visa Assistant. A genuine flight reservation with a PNR is a practical way to show your route and dates, but there is no universal published PNR requirement for every application; a reservation is not an issued ticket.

Recommended Flight Itinerary Type
Based on the guidance linked above, we recommend considering a flight reservation with a PNR to show your planned travel. Tripenger’s PNR package includes an airline booking reference, subject to airline availability. The guidance does not explicitly require a PNR, so please check the latest requirements with the relevant visa authority before ordering.
Choose Your Package and Order Your Flight ItineraryIf you live in Kenya and are applying for a short-stay France Schengen visa, prepare flight evidence that matches your real route and the current document list for your purpose of travel.
Where to apply
Residents of Kenya normally submit France visa applications by appointment at TLScontact in Nairobi. The French Embassy decides the application.
What to show for your flights
Prepare flight evidence that matches your planned journey and the document list generated for your own visa category. A genuine reservation with a PNR provides a booking reference without being an issued ticket.
Choosing an itinerary
A genuine reservation with a PNR is our practical recommendation. A PNR is a flight booking reference, not an issued ticket number. The published instructions for this route do not separately make a PNR mandatory for every case.
Before you submit
Check the Visa Assistant’s document list and appointment instructions before preparing your file.
