Default I have just 3 weeks to renew my Australian RRV from Paris!

I am leaving Paris on the 7th October for a trip home to attend my daughter's Wedding but to my horror my RRV has expired! As many on this site will know - nothing get's done quickly in France. Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can fast track my RRV application from France?

Very many thanks - I had seen this but they say the target lead time to process is 3 weeks and I only have 21 days before departure on the 7th October. I also called them in Paris and they were very unhelpful to say the least! I am wondering if it would be worth a trip to London to the Australian Embassy there? Thoughts?

Why not give the London embassy a ring and tell them your dilemma? I'm sure they will help if they can, besides at least you can make an appointment if poss so won't have a wasted trip. What have you got to lose? Give them a ring mate. Good luck
