Candidates applying by post must send the registration file to OFPRA’s human resources service at the specified Fontenay-sous-Bois Cedex address; the postmark is used to determine whether the deadline was met.
Candidates requesting a paper application file by letter must include an A4 envelope addressed to themselves and stamped at the applicable rate for a letter up to 100 grams; otherwise no file will be sent.
Candidates must ensure their application file is complete and correctly filled in, because incomplete or incorrectly completed files will be rejected.
