Part of League of Nations Refugees Mixed Archival Group (Nansen Fonds)

This file contains correspondence regarding the measures taken by France to act upon the resolutions adopted by the Council on 25 Mar. 1922, its adhesion to the identity certificates system on 4 Sept. 1922 and enforcement of adhesion as of 1 Jan. 1923. It includes correspondence with other delegations regarding subsequent obstacles encountered in the delivery of visas by French diplomatic representations. It appears that the Russian organisations play an important role in the recommendations for visa issuance by French Consuls. A press clipping raises the issue of consequences on Russian emigration of "de jure" recognition by France of the Soviet government.
