16-year-old's driving licence application

Are you British, what TdS’s do you hold? This is actually quite important.

WARP - Withdrawal Agreement residents permit - Article 50 TUE - Brexit TdS

From the gouv.fr site (I know anyway as my friends 13 and 15 yr old were naturalised with two British parents) :slight_smile:

But I put 16 into the simulator as your daughter is 16.

Si vous êtes né en France de parents étrangers, vous pouvez demander la nationalité française par déclaration dès l’âge de 16 ans.

Vous devez remplir les conditions suivantes :

  • Avoir 16 ans ou 17 ans
  • Être né en France
  • Avoir eu votre résidence habituelle en France pendant une période continue ou discontinue d’au moins 5 ans depuis l’âge de 11 ans
  • Résider en France le jour de la déclaration

Not correct! See below!

Yes, we’re both British, which is why our kids are British even though they are born here in France. We hold ‘Carte de Sejour Permanent Article 50 TUE’. The WARP bit threw me as it’s not marked on the TdS.

Excellent it’s all good. When you questioned the Brexit TdS and you didn’t seem to recognise Article 50, I was worried that you might not have the right card.

Unfortunately I’m still coming across people that still haven’t got a WARP, this is what the Ministère de l’Intérieur called it during the negotiation period, so it’s stuck.

Interesting, Cat, thanks for that. We always thought that our children could apply from the age of 16, but when we looked into it recently the age seemed to have been raised to 18. Just looked at the gouv.fr website and found the section. Very odd that we looked into this a few months ago and didn’t find this information…

Very strange especially as it has always been the case !

And for the residence proof of address bit you just do a déclaration sur l’honneur with a utility bill. I did that for my latest daughter to pass her driving test.

Thanks, Vero. There was actually a ‘modèle’ on the form on the ANTS website to confirm that my daughter lived at the address, and yes, I supplied a bill in our name.

Big thanks to Kim, toryroo and Shiba for all of the help and info. I’ll let you know if we eventually get the NEPH…Have good weekends.
