Article D431-19 of the French Code governing the entry and residence of foreign nationals and the right of asylum

The competent authority’s decision on the application for the visa provided for in 5° of article R. 431-16 is notified to the foreign national in writing as soon as possible and at the latest within ninety days of the date on which the complete application was submitted.
As an exception to article R. 432-2, silence kept by the administrative authority on this application gives rise to an implicit decision of rejection after a period of ninety days.
