Question 14684 — foreigners

Summary

Mr. Arthur Delaporte draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the very significant increase in taxes applicable to the issue and renewal of residence permits provided for by the finance law for 2026, which must come into force on May 1, 2026. This reform results in increases of up to 50% to 100%, whether in the cost of the first issue of a residence permit, so-called reduced taxes, or visa fees. regularization or even stamp duty for access to French nationality. It comes at a time when the people concerned may belong to a less well-off population and, in many cases, the delays in processing applications prevent them from accessing employment for several months. In this context, this increase appears to be a disproportionate burden, likely to slow down access to rights, to complicate regularization process and, more broadly, to weaken integration dynamics. It also risks shifting part of the cost onto associations and local authorities who are already in high demand to support these audiences. Therefore, he asks whether the Government intends to reassess the social impact of these measures and consider their revision or the establishment of exemption or support mechanisms in order not to further penalize foreign people in precarious situations.
