Opening of a new visa application centre for France in Mosul, Iraq

One of our leading companies Tower Bridge in cooperation with TLScontact recently opened a brand-new visa application centre (VAC) for France in Mosul, Iraq. The centre, which opened its doors on 26 April 2023, is the first visa application centre for a Schengen country in Mosul.


Our teams will be processing Schengen visa applications for France, managing the administrative aspects of the application process on behalf of the local French diplomatic mission.


“The opening ceremony was held in the presence of the French General Consul of Mosul, Jean-Christophe Augé, the French Consul of Baghdad, Samuel Bouchard, the Governor of Nineveh, Najm al-Jubouri, as well as other prominent figures from Iraq and local and international journalists, showcasing the significance of the inauguration of such a centre in Mosul,” says Bilal Diaa, Middle East Zone Manager at TLScontact.


The VAC will open its doors for applicants two days per month as a first step and will increase its working days proportionally to demand. Applications will be processed by the consular services of the French Embassy in Baghdad.
