  1. if the person has the latest and newest passport required by the US, he or she, will not need a visa,

    the US and France are within the visa waiver, reciprocity

    Passports issued after October 25, 2005, must contain a digital photo. A digital photo is one that is printed on the page, not a photo that is glued or laminated onto the passport.

    - Passports issued after October 25, 2006 must also contain biometric information.

    other than this passport? all European need a visa now to visit the US;

    otherwise? 90 days visa free,

    i am french,and my passport does not allow me to enter the US unless it is updated, but? i am an US citizen as well.............

    therefore i should know what the US ask of European countries to enter the US

    Paris

      Lines are snaking out the door of the U.S. Consulate in Paris, as would-be French travelers to America wait to get newly required visas. The problem: the French government has yet to issue special biometric passports.   Without such a passport, travelers are now required to have a visa.  That's translating into a major loss for the French tourism industry.

    Until recently, French visitors did not need a visa to enter the United States. No longer.  A U.S. law passed after the September 2001 terrorist strikes requires travelers from 27 countries to have special high-tech passports for security reasons. The new biometric passports carry a chip with the image and fingerprints of the passport holder. Of these nations, 26 - including Australia, Britain, Japan and Singapore - have complied with the regulations, but France has not.

    (it has now updated passports)


  2. What sort of visa? A person with a French passport doesn't really need a visa to be a tourist in the US, they can come in for up to 90 days under Visa Waiver. If you have something else in mind, let us know.

  3. Contact the French consulate.  They'll have all the details.

  4. You don't need a visa unless you want to work or study in the US.

    If you do, your employer or university will advise you.
