FAQs about applying for a French residence permit through a startup

In order to take part in the French residence permit program, you must submit the following documents to the prefecture:

an international passport with a valid D visa;
application form in 2 copies;
birth certificate;
3 photos (3.5 x 4.5 cm);
invitation letter from La French Tech;
receipt of payment of the fee for producing a residence card;
rental contract or contract for the purchase of a property in France.

For the applicants with a family, in addition to the documents listed above, you must provide certificates of:

marriage;
birth of spouse and children;
adoption (if necessary).

A startup visa applicant has the opportunity to include all of their family members in the application. They receive French residence status at the same time as the main applicant. The spouse is entitled to employment, and minor children are entitled to free public education.

Entrepreneurs from other countries with a business in France pay a corporate tax of 15% to 25% (depending on the company's turnover). Businessmen must also pay VAT.

To obtain a residence permit in France under the French Tech Visa program, an applicant needs to be a technical specialist, startup founder/ co-founder or investor, send a motivation letter to La French Tech and once the invitation letter is received, open a visa to enter the country. Next, the applicant needs to travel to France and apply for a residence permit.

A residence permit in France allows you to travel visa-free throughout the EU and Schengen area.

To extend your residence permit, you do not need to be permanently in France, as the program does not prescribe these conditions.

The most popular regions among Russian speakers are Strasbourg, Nice, Cannes and Paris.

No, it is not necessary. Registration of resident status under the French Tech Visa program is carried out without knowledge of the language.

The rules of the program do not require the applicant to necessarily rent or buy a property for a certain amount, but the applicant must live in an apartment with an area of at least 9 m².
