You need two distinct permits in order to work in France. To be allowed to live in France, you’ll first need a work permit, which our employer must apply for. After that, you’ll need a long-stay visa, which you must apply for on your own. We will do all in our power to assist you along the process, but we can’t take care of everything.
Step 1:
You’ll sign our work agreement once your application for employment with us has been successful.
Step 2:
After that, we’ll apply for your work permit.
Step 3:
Once we have the work permit you can apply for your visa by:
- Completing the France-Visas Form
- Creating your TLS Contact Account
- Securing an appointment
- Going to the appointment
- Delivering your passport
You can find extra in-depth details here, and here.
Step 4:
You can send us a copy of your visa approval once it has been granted. You are now completely set to work in France with us!
Step 5:
We will schedule an appointment on your behalf at the local French immigration office once you are here with us in Morzine.
Step 6:
We can assist you in getting to the immigration office once the appointment has been scheduled. They will provide you with your temporary visa documentation during this initial appointment.
Step 7:
After that, you’ll need to attend a second visit at the immigration office to get your “titre de séjour,” which is a permanent visa. This will specify the precise dates you may reside in France (a visa can be up to five years)
When requesting a visa, there are expenses. Visa fees can be found here. When you pick up your permanent titre de séjour, you will also need to pay a local tax.
