Études en France, MEA Apostille and traducteur assermenté translation for Indian students
Campus France runs the pre-consular interview. The Embassy of France runs the visa. SiZA runs the apostille and sworn French translation that both processes want to see.
Your Situation
How SiZA helps campus france: apostille & traducteur assermenté
A French study visa case for an Indian student moves through three forums. Admission with the French university or Grande École, often through the Études en France (Campus France) procedure for the pre-consular interview. Document legalisation through MEA Apostille on the academic set. Sworn French translation by a translator recognised by the French court system for the documents the French university or consulate asks to read in French.
Legalisation and the translation side are what SiZA owns. Degree apostille, marksheet apostille, Class 12 certificate apostille, birth certificate apostille for the dependent or family-reunion case, and sworn French translation through SiZA Multi Lingual Translators for the documents the receiving authority needs in French. Admission and the Campus France interview are between you and France; we do not promise either.
Common Situations
Real situations we run for this audience
Études en France (Campus France) interview application
Students applying to most French universities go through Études en France for the pre-consular interview before the visa appointment. The interview case includes admission proof from the French institution, academic transcripts and degree, French-language proof where the course is taught in French (DELF or DALF), and English-language proof where the course is taught in English. The apostille and sworn translation legs sit with us; the interview is the student’s.
Sworn French translation by a court-recognised translator
France distinguishes between a translation and a sworn (assermenté) translation. For most consulate and university uses, only a sworn translation done by a translator recognised by a French court of appeal carries weight. SiZA Multi Lingual Translators arranges sworn French translation in coordination with court-recognised translators. We translate after MEA Apostille is on the original; not before.
VLS-TS long-stay student visa application
The VLS-TS (Long-stay visa equivalent to a residence permit) is the student’s entry into France for a course over 90 days. The visa documents rests on the apostilled academic set, accommodation proof, financial proof, travel medical insurance, and the Campus France attestation where the procedure applies. Once in France the student validates the VLS-TS online within three months. We prepare the document side; the visa decision is the consulate’s.
NRI student already at the French university, originals in India
Students already in France for a post-arrival check, Carte de Séjour renewal, or course-change document set often need an apostilled Indian original couriered to France. We coordinate with the student’s family in India, execute the sequence, share completion proof on WhatsApp, and ship to the French address through a tracked international partner.

Country And Process Map
What we do in India, country by country
Notary or HRD as the destination institution asks, MEA Attestation, MEA Apostille, then sworn French translation by a court-recognised translator.
France is a Hague country. Translation is a separate process; sworn French translation comes after MEA Apostille on the original.
How SiZA handles this work
- •Reads the French university’s document instruction and the VFS France India checklist line by line before quoting a route
- •Pairs MEA Apostille with sworn French translation through SiZA Multi Lingual Translators
- •Coordinates with parents or college office in India when the student is already in France
- •Customer ID and document ID at intake; printed checklist that travels with the case
- •WhatsApp updates at each handoff with French-time-aware timing
- •Return courier to a French address through DHL or a tracked international partner
What SiZA does not do
- •No promise of Campus France interview clearance, university admission, or VLS-TS approval
- •No DELF or DALF test booking or score promise
- •No agency for university applications or scholarship selection
- •No translation before apostille on the original document
The Real Worry
What you are dealing with
Your Campus France interview slot is six weeks out. The French university wants sworn French translation of the degree and marksheets, the consulate wants apostilled originals, and your last semester transcript has not yet arrived from the Indian college.
How SiZA addresses it
We start with what is in hand. Apostille on the existing originals begins immediately; sworn translation runs in parallel because translation does not depend on the final transcript. The moment the consolidated transcript arrives, we apostille that and add its translation. Completion photos before the application ships back.
Why customers trust SiZA
France files turn on sworn translation discipline. A translation from a non-court-recognised translator gets the documents returned. SiZA Multi Lingual Translators works with court-recognised French translators for the documents the consulate and university read. The majority of new student customers reach us through earlier students who landed cleanly at French universities the previous intake.
