Your prefecture

The sub-prefecture, in practical terms

The sub-prefecture of Grasse is the administrative centre for the whole arrondissement, 62 communes running from Antibes and Cannes up into the villages behind them. It is open to the public Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 1pm, and the counter is reserved for information and for procedures handled by France Titres. A digital access point is available on site for people who need help completing online procedures.

What that means in plain terms: you cannot simply turn up and hand over a residence file. The application goes through the ANEF portal, and the counter is not a substitute for it. Knowing this before you drive down and queue saves a morning.

Local reality

What is different about Grasse

We are ten minutes away

Being local is not a marketing line here. It means we know the rhythm of the office, the seasons when it slows, and the way a given question is best asked.

The villages behind the town

Châteauneuf, Opio, Le Rouret, Roquefort-les-Pins, Valbonne. Beautiful, and a long way from any counter. Almost everything can now be done remotely, and we would rather do it that way than send you down the hill.

Files that have already gone wrong

A lot of what reaches us here is a second attempt. A refusal or a silent portal is not the end of the road, but it does change how the next file has to be built.

What we handle in Grasse

Everything on one file, or just the one thing.

Grasse, in practice

Local questions, answered.

What are the opening hours of the Grasse sub-prefecture?

It is open to the public Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 1pm. The counter is reserved for information and for procedures handled by France Titres, and a digital access point is available on site for people who need help with online procedures.

Can I hand in my residence file at the counter?

No, and this is worth knowing before you drive down and queue. Residence applications go through the ANEF portal, and the counter is not a substitute for it. What the counter can do is give information and handle France Titres matters.

Do I have to come to you, up in the hills?

Almost never. Nearly everything is handled remotely, by email and by phone, which is what makes the villages behind Grasse as easy to serve as the town itself. We are in Châteauneuf-Grasse if you would rather meet.
