Where to apply: France has no mission in Marshall Islands

Guides tell you a visa is required but never warn that there is nowhere to file it — the mission simply does not exist in your country. We picked the nearest countries that do accept applications and measured the distance.

1
Vanuatu 2,546 km
Applications accepted in: Port Vila
2
Japan 4,649 km
Applications accepted in: Tokyo
3
New Zealand 5,354 km
Applications accepted in: Wellington

Distances are measured between country centroids — a rough guide, not a route. Before you travel, confirm with the chosen consulate that it accepts applicants resident elsewhere: many operate a consular district, and out-of-district applications are not always accepted, often with a longer queue.
