I want to apply to the piano section of the Conservatoire National Superieur de Paris. Unfortunately, after many hours of intense research, I was not able to find the required repertory for the audition. Can someone help me with this?

I looked at their website and as far as I could understand, you have to apply first for the audition, within a strictly defined timescale. They then issue you with an admission dossier number and send you the requirements for the audition. So the required pieces will be specific to each audition period and the candidates learn/perfect the pieces within this time.
You also need officially recognised proof of at least B1 level of competence in French.

My French isn't as good as it used to be, so of course contact them personally to check.

If it is for Bachelor, you'll play A prelude and fugue by Bach, a (movement from) a classical sonata, 1 or 2 studies, a romantic work and/or a work by your own choice. They will only ask for about 10 minutes, so make sure you know everything equally well.
