The irrevocable transfer certificate (AVI) is a proof of funds required for the long-stay student visa. It certifies that the student will receive a fixed sum every month during their stay in France.
What the AVI is for
The consulate must be sure you can live in France during your studies. The AVI proves it: a sum is blocked in your name and will be paid to you every month.
How the payments work
The funds remain blocked until you arrive in France, then they are paid into your account every month.
How the consulate checks it
Every certificate issued by Univers France Succès carries an identifier and a QR code that the consulate checks online.
