I am heading out tomorrow morning so a quick reply would be great.<BR/><BR/>My question for you is, where do I get these timre OMI and what do I ask for? I am planning on going to a tabac and just asking for 'timbre OMI' and maybe throw in a etranger?<BR/><BR/>As I recall, last year I played stupid (as I actually am/was) and it went through without the timbre OMI.<BR/><BR/>Thanks a bunch. I will keep you up to date.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06513407538955145569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20199050.post-84150652011558492902008-06-03T15:55:00.000+02:002008-06-03T15:55:00.000+02:00There must be different types of "visiteur" becaus...There must be different types of "visiteur" because I have a long-stay visa, but my status is "visiteur".Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16717837396686934461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20199050.post-49038119290621646382008-06-03T14:52:00.000+02:002008-06-03T14:52:00.000+02:00Really?

I thought all visiteur cards were free and you only had to pay for the right to work in France (vie privee, etudiant, salarie, etc.) My visiteur card from last summer was free.

I don't know how much the stamps cost or which ones to buy. I'll have to go to the prefecture first anyway to see if my vie privee carte is actually there or if they made another stupid visiteur carte instead. Can I go to any tabac near the prefecture?Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02700188628709124335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20199050.post-46403250486741904552008-05-20T06:29:00.000+02:002008-05-20T06:29:00.000+02:00This is definately good news!
