45 minutes, digital exam
28 knowledge + 12 situational questions
The civic exam has been in force since 1 January 2026 (order of 10 October 2025). The format is the same for every mention.
No official naturalisation list: here is our answer
The ministry publishes no question list specific to naturalisation; only the CSP and CR lists exist. Our naturalisation preparation therefore covers all published lists, plus the situational questions. We say this plainly rather than invent a list that does not exist.
How we prepare you
- Mock exams under real conditions: 40 questions, same format, same pass mark.
- Corrections grounded in the official fact sheets, cited question by question. The ministry publishes no answers; we document them.
- Per-theme tracking so each revision session targets what costs you points.
- Dedicated training for the situational questions (themes 1 and 3), which the ministry never publishes.
Which pass should you choose?
Naturalisation preparation trains on the full programme: it is part of the Complet pass.
Frequently asked questions
- Is there an official question list for naturalisation?
- No. The ministry publishes lists for the multi-year residence permit and the resident card only. Be wary of sites claiming to have "the naturalisation list".
- Is the format the same as for the residence permits?
- Yes: 40 questions, 28 knowledge and 12 situational, 45 minutes, 32 correct answers required. The format is uniform across all mentions.
- What happens if you fail?
- You can retake the exam. With our passes, access stays active until you pass: you keep training without paying again.
