The notification of the bulletin mentioned in article R. 632-3 is made by the prefect of the département where the foreign national’s residence is located or, if the foreign national is detained in a penal establishment, by the prefect of the département where this establishment is located. In Paris, the competent Prefect is the Prefect of Police.
The notification form is given to the foreign national at least fifteen days before the date scheduled for the meeting of the expulsion committee, either by a police officer or by the clerk of the prison. The foreign national gives a discharge for this delivery.
If the foreign national himself cannot be delivered, the summons is sent to his residence by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt confirmed, on the same day, by ordinary letter.
If the foreign national has changed residence without informing the administration as required by article R. 431-23, notification is made to the last known residence by registered letter under the conditions indicated in the third paragraph.
