Based on the message you received from the préfecture, it's clear that they are specifically requesting the "acte d'engagement à respecter les principes et valeurs de la République Française (RF)" rather than additional proof of residence. This document is crucial for your titre de séjour renewal application.
Contrat d'Engagement
The document they are requesting is officially called the "Contrat d'engagement à respecter les principes de la République" (Contract of commitment to respect the principles of the Republic). This is a new requirement that has been implemented since July 17, 2024, for all residence permit applications and renewals[1][2]. Here's what you need to know:
Mandatory Document: This contract is now a mandatory part of your application for a residence permit renewal[1][2].
Purpose: By signing this document, you commit to respecting the principles that form the foundation of the French Republic[1][6].
Where to Find It: You can download the contract from the official website of the Direction des Étrangers en France (DEGEF)[5].
Language Options: The contract is available in multiple languages, but you must sign the French version[2][5].
Submission Process:
If you're applying through the ANEF (Administration Numérique pour les Étrangers en France) online portal, you should upload the signed contract in the "Justificatifs de domicile" (Proof of residence) section[2][5].
If submitting in person, include it with your application documents[2].
Importance: Failure to provide this signed document can result in the closure of your application or refusal of your residence permit[1][6].
Next Steps
Download the "Contrat d'engagement à respecter les principes de la République" from the official DEGEF website.
Read it carefully, ensuring you understand its contents.
Sign and date the French version of the contract.
Submit this signed document to your préfecture as soon as possible, following their specified submission method.
Remember, this document is separate from your proof of residence documents, which you've already submitted. The préfecture is specifically asking for this contract, and it's crucial for the continuation of your application process.
