French Visas
Getting a visa is not difficult as long as you meet all the requirements. Most visa rejections are due to damaged or invalid passport, incorrect documents, insufficient funds, criminal record, previous overstay in the Schengen area and blurry photograph.
Your total stay in the Schengen area must be no more than 90 days in every 180 days. It does not matter how many countries you visit. The 180-day period keeps 'rolling'. For each day you are in the Schengen zone, you need to consider the preceding 180 days to determine if you are within the 90-day limit. For any given date. A full day is counted even if you are in the zone for 20 minutes.
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.

French Administrative Tasks
If you legally live in France and meet the residency or work requirements, you may be eligible for French Social Security and a Carte Vitale. Eligibility depends on your visa status (work, family, student, self-employed, etc.) and proof of stable residence in France. We guide you through the application, help prepare the correct documents, and follow up until your rights are opened. Book now!
If you are on a short stay visa there is generally no issue. All driving licences issued by a state not belonging to the EU or the EEA are generally valid on French territory during the 12 months following the date of establishment of normal residence in France. After that, if your country has an agreement with France, you can exchange your license for a French one. If not, you will need to apply for a French license. Contract us for support!
Even if you have the correct visa type, you can't start running a business in France until you register for a business number (SIRET/SIREN). Let us help you get set up!
Most international CVs are not adapted to French hiring standards. A French CV has specific formatting, length, and content expectations. We review your CV, adapt it to French norms, and ensure it aligns with what recruiters and employers in France actually look for. Send us your CV!
You need a French fiscal number if you live in France, own property, earn income, or need to complete administrative steps. First-time applicants must request it manually through the tax office. We help you submit the correct request, avoid delays, and obtain your fiscal number as smoothly as possible. Let's get started!
