Préfecture de la région Normandie et de la Seine-Maritime

What Préfecture de la région Normandie et de la Seine-Maritime does

The Préfecture de la région Normandie et de la Seine-Maritime is a decentralized administrative service of the French State (République française), operating under the Ministry of the Interior. It is headquartered in Rouen (7, place de la Madeleine) with sub-prefectures in Le Havre and Dieppe, serving the entire Seine-Maritime department (~1.25 million residents) and also functioning as the seat of the Normandy regional authority. The entity is directed by the Préfet, who is appointed by decree of the President of the Republic and serves as the State's representative at the departmental level. The organization employs 134 people and provides core administrative services including identity document issuance (passports, national ID cards), vehicle registration (carte grise), driving licenses, naturalization and immigration services, public safety coordination, electoral administration, environmental oversight, and support to local elected officials (maires and municipal councilors).

The technical infrastructure consists of a standard government web portal (seine-maritime.gouv.fr) built on HTML/CSS/JavaScript with online appointment scheduling, digital form submissions, and integration into national government platforms such as ANTS (secure identity documents) and ANEF (foreign nationals/administration). Digital hosting is provided by SGAMI Est in Metz, and the website is measured via Eulerian Analytics. The entity is partially compliant with RGAA 4.1.2 accessibility standards (72.58% compliance) and is RGPD-compliant under the Loi Informatique et Libertés. An interdepartmental naturalization platform, established in February 2023, processes applications digitally for both Eure and Seine-Maritime departments via the national administration-etrangers-en-france.interieur.gouv.fr portal.

The Préfecture is funded entirely through French State general taxation and public budget allocations; it does not generate commercial revenue. Services are provided as public goods either free of charge or subject to statutory fees (e.g., fiscal stamps for naturalization, passport, and ID card fees) set by national regulation. The Pre-revenue classification reflects the absence of commercial monetization. End-users are segmented into general citizens (primary), local elected officials, foreign nationals seeking French citizenship, vehicle owners, and businesses/professionals. Distribution combines physical prefectural offices, France Services assisted-digital points, national digital portals, and postal mail for select procedures.
