Starting October 18, 2026, medical professionals registered with the Algiers Regional Council of the Order of Physicians will have access to a streamlined process for booking France visa appointments. This initiative aims to assist doctors traveling for scientific conferences and training sessions. Applicants must first register via the official France-Visas portal before submitting their documentation to the Order to receive a certificate and a Capago appointment. The required paperwork depends on whether the practitioner is employed or in private practice, with mandatory translations into French for all non-French documents. While this organizational change aims to simplify the appointment booking process, it does not guarantee visa approval, as the final decision rests with the French consular authorities. The measure is currently restricted to doctors registered in the Algiers region.
