Frequently asked questions about the decree of September 30, 2021

How do I know whether my number is in the decree of September 30, 2021?

Enter your ministerial number in the free AlertJO search: it compares that number with every decree analysed, including the one of September 30, 2021. You can also open the official document on Légifrance, linked from this page.

What does the decree of September 30, 2021 contain?

This issue (JORF no. 228) records 571 people naturalised. This page breaks it down by category, by country of birth and by the department that processed the file, as published in the document.

Where can I find the official text of the decree of September 30, 2021?

On legifrance.gouv.fr, in the matching Official Journal issue. For decrees published since 2016, the extract containing personal details has restricted access: Légifrance asks you to solve a small puzzle before the document opens.

If I am in this decree, from what date am I French?

From the date the decree was signed, not from its Official Journal publication date. Both dates appear in the published document.

Why is my department missing from the breakdown?

The department shown is the one that processed the file, not the place of birth or the current place of residence. Files whose department cannot be read in the published document are grouped separately.

How can I be told about the next issue?

The government publishes no schedule for naturalisation decrees. The AlertJO email alert reads every new Official Journal issue and emails you the day your ministerial number appears in it.

Your REZE number is enough to check the latest Official Journal publications.
