How do I get my Studhome housing certificate?

The certificate is issued entirely online, in minutes:

1. Create your account on Studhome (email or Google).
2. Fill in your details: identity, passport, city of study. The certificate is backed by a real address in a Colonies residence in your chosen city.
3. Pay online with an international bank card.
4. Download your certificate as a PDF, available immediately after payment, with its verification QR code.

The document is issued and signed by SAS COLONIES, a student housing operator present in 17 French cities; you can browse the homes, from Paris to Lyon.

You then attach the PDF to your visa file as proof of accommodation. For the consulate side, see how to fill in France-Visas with the certificate.
