how to get a French Carte de Séjour
French Residency: The Carte de Séjour
Everyone's situation is different, and immigration laws change constantly therefore the following should be taken as a rough guide to what you can expect. Please contact us if you have specific questions regarding your requirement for a visa or permit.
Non EU citizens
Unless you are a citizen of the European Union, you will need to contact the French Embassy/Consulate of your current country of domicile BEFORE you arrive to ensure you are arriving in France on the correct visa. Without the correct Visa applying for residency can become an even more complicated matter.
Some people arrive on a tourist visa and start to process their application for residency once in France, - this is often the case when employees are paid in their home country. This is possible but can delay things considerably as the carte de séjour is required for many other administrative procedures.
Procedures may vary for different nationalities and activities, therefore it is important to clearly explain to your French embassy your intended plans. Starting the ball rolling at home will help things along once you arrive in France.
It is also important at this stage to let them know who will be accompanying you and whether they have a requirement to work, study etc., during their stay in France.
You will also be required to undergo a medical examination with the OMI - Office des Migrations Internationales before your residency application is accepted.
The whole process may take several months so patience is needed, once you are a resident in France you will have many of the same social rights as a French national.
EU Member
If you hold a passport for one of the member states of the European Union, you are permitted to reside in France on your passport. Since November 2003 Eu members no longer require a carte de séjour.
Practically France is still in transition with this new situation and you may find that you require one for certain administrative procedures relating to employment and registrations while other administrative bodies adjust their procedures.
Obtaining the Carte de Séjour
The residency permit may vary in its validity and this will depend on the nature of your work contract or personal situation.
The minimum documents you will require in order to obtain a Carte de Séjour are included in the following list.
*Please note that, depending on your working/marital situation, you may be required to provide additional information:
For You:
1) Completed application form (provided by immigration services)
2) Photocopy of the title pages of your Passport
3) 3 ID photographs (black and white - no head clothing, sunglasses etc.)
4) Declaration d'engagement (should be completed by your employer)
5) Proof of French address (utility bill, lease less than three months old)
6) If you are paid abroad: Health insurance, E101
For your Partner:
1) Marriage Certificate (officially translated into French)
2) Completed application form (provided by immigration services)
3) Photocopy of the title pages of your Passport
3) 3 ID photographs (black and white - no head clothing, sunglasses etc.)
4) Declaration d'engagement (should be completed by your employer)
5) Proof of address (utility bill, lease less than three months old)
NB: Originals AND photocopies should be presented for each individual, translated documents must be translated by an officially recognised translator and be accompanied with originals and photocopies. Each persons application is processed independantly.

tips for moving in paris: opening a bank account
Whether you are resident or non-resident you are entitled to open a bank account in France.
Neither do you need to own a home in France to open a French bank account.
If you are non-resident then you would open a compte non-résident.
However, whilst residents have an automatic right to a bank account, this is not the case for non-residents.
You are likely to find that the rules governing the operation of the account as a non-resident are tougher, such as the need to maintain a minimum deposit, and limits on the amount you may be able to transfer each month.
Few High Street French banks will allow you to open an account as a non-resident without actually presenting yourselves in person to them. This is because of the legal obligations imposed upon banks concerning the control of money laundering.
That said, it is possible for residents of the UK and Ireland to open a Crédit Agricole Britline account by post, with CA Normandie.
Most of the Internet Banks also allow non-residents to open an account, but check with them on their residence qualification, if any. Once again, however, expect to have to provide a lot of paperwork to be able to do so.
If you want to remain discreet you can open an account using a pseudonym, provided you are resident, and provided the bank is satisfied about who you really are!
Similarly, a woman, if she so wishes, can open an account using her maiden name.
However, do not assume you can run a secret bank account in France.
This system only provides summary details of the account holder and type of account; it does not provide them access to the operations of the bank account.
Business accounts held in the name of the company are also on the system.
The banks are also required to inform the tax authority of the closure of an account, or change of account holder, and to inform them of funds in the account of a deceased person.
Since 2010 notaires have access to this system, so that they can deal more effeciently with inheritance, divorce and other cases handled by them.
The level of monitoring of customer withdrawals and transactions by the banks themselves has increased significantly in recent years, with the banks required by law to notify the regulatory authorities about 'suspicious' transactions.

The French tax and other regulatory authorities maintain a list of all bank accounts held in France, through a registration system called FICOBA - Fichier national des comptes bancaires et assimilés.
Business accounts held in the name of the company are also on the system.

Discover the Louvre |
 |
| From its beginnings as a royal fortress to the public institution we see today, discover the Musée du Louvre: its role, its aims, and the expertise of the people who make it work. |
Some of the most famous works of art in the museum are the Venus of Milo, the Nike of Samothrake, the Dying Slave by Michelangelo and of course Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa.
History of the Louvre
The Louvre was created in several phases. 
Originally built as a 12th century fortress, it was converted into a royal palace in the 14th century.
Its current appearance goes back to the 15th century, when the original fortress was demolished and the wing along the Seine river was built. The palace was extended during the 16th century by architect Pierre Lescot, who expanded the palace into a complex with two courtyards. A decade later Catharina de Medici added the Tuileries palace to the west of the Louvre. Construction on the Louvre was halted for some time when king Louis XIV decided to move to versailles
In the 19th century, during the Second Empire, the Louvre was expanded again with the addition of the Richelieu wing.
The Louvre now had four symmetric wings surrounding a large courtyard. This would not last long, as the Communards burned the Tuileries palace in 1871, opening up the west side of the palace.
The collection of the Louvre Museum was first established in the 16th century by King Francis I. One of the works of art he purchased was the now famous Mona Lisa painting. The collection grew steadily thanks to donations and purchases by the kings. In 1793, during the French Revolution, the private royal collection opened to the public.

Glass Pyramid
The most recent addition to the Louvre was the 
construction of the glass pyramid, which functions as the museum's main entrance. The pyramid was built in 1989 by the renowned American architect I.M. Pei. The glass pyramid allows the sunlight to come in on the underground floor.
The modern addition originally received mixed reviews, as it contrasts sharply with the classical design of the surrounding buildings, but today it is generally accepted as a clever solution which has given the museum a spacious central entrance without the need to touch the historic patrimony.

Paris Eiffel tower
Constructed between 1887 and 1889, including the 24m antenna, the Eiffel Tower is 324m high and weighs 7,300 tons, which made it the worlds tallest structure until 1930 when it was beaten by New York City's Chrysler Building.
The tower can sway 6 to 7cm in the wind and due to the thermal expansion of the metal on the side facing the sun, depending upon the ambient temperature, the top of the tower may shift away from the sun by up to 18cm.
The Eiffel Tower in Paris is re-painted every 7 years and it takes around 6 tons of paint to complete it, just to stop this monument from rusting.
There are three levels in all. At the south towers base a ticket booth sells tickets to use the stairs, which begin at that location and the first and second levels are accessible by both stairs and lifts. But the third level summit is only accessible by lift. On the first platform, the stairs continue up from the east tower.
The 7th arrondissement in Paris is well-known for a few reasons – first and foremost, it’s where you’ll find the world-famous Eiffel Tower, along with Napoleon’s Tomb at Les Invalides.
But beyond that, it just happens to be one of the most expensive neighborhoods in which to live, let alone to stay the night. Even still, there are some good options if you’re looking for budget hotels near the Eiffel Tower. They may not all be in the 7th arrondissement, but the neighboring districts are fine – and it’s really all about the distance from the famous tower, right?
Here are some of the cheap hotels near the Eiffel Tower – 3-star hotels are listed first, and then 2-star hotels. And if you’re really on a tight budget, there’s even one hostel that’s not too far from the Eiffel Tower (it’s listed at the bottom of this post).
You’ll find a Paris map below with the Eiffel Tower and the listed hotels marked on it, and you can get more information about and book each one by either clicking on the map’s hotel icon or by looking below the map for a brief description about each hotel.
Taking the steps is not for the feint hearted, as the actual count of stairs includes 9 steps to the ticket booth at the base of the Eiffel Tower, 328 steps to the first level, 340 steps to the second level, and 18 steps to the lift platform on the second level. And when exiting the lift at the third level, there are another 15 more steps to ascend to the upper observation platform. Whether you think this a good idea or not, the actual step count is printed periodically on the side of the stairs to give you an indication of your progress!!! But for the majority of the climb, it does allow you an unhindered view of the area directly beneath and around the tower bar a few brief times when the stairway is enclosed.
Did you know that the Eiffel Tower was to be demolished in 20 years after construction? It was due to the fact the Gustave Eiffel was only given a permit for the Eiffel Tower to stand for 20 years before it passed to the city ready for its destruction, but because it became valuable as a communications resource, it was allowed to remain in place even after the permit had expired.
The military even used it to dispatch Parisian taxis to the front line during the First World War and the Battle of the Marne, and it therefore became a victory statue of that battle.
The tower has two restaurants. The first called Altitude 95 is on the first floor and is at 95m above sea level. The second restaurant is called the Jules Verne, which is on the second floor and this is an expensive gastronomical restaurant with its own private lift.
The structure was built as the entrance arch for the Exposition Universelle, which was a World's Fair marking the centennial celebration of the French Revolution, with the Eiffel Tower being inaugurated on 31 March 1889, and opened on 6 May 1889.
There were 300 workers who joined together 18,038 pieces of puddled iron, which is a very pure form of structural iron, using two and a half million rivets.
And although the risk of accident was great because of its open frame and only the two platforms, because Gustave Eiffel took safety precautions only one man died.
But when the Eiffel Tower was built, it was met with resistance, as the public felt it was an eyesore, even though Parisians today would not wish to be without it, as it is widely considered to be a striking piece of structural art!
People were also shocked at the daring shape, questioning Gustave Eiffel wondering if he really was a good engineer, but being that he and his engineers were renowned bridge builders, he came back with comments stating that it was based on mathematical calculations utilising wind resistance.
Although most people have the idea that the Eiffel Tower can be seen from almost anywhere in Paris, this is actually not the case, due to restrictions in place that limit the height of most buildings to only a few storeys so there are only a few of the taller buildings that get a clear view of the tower.

tips to find a cheap hotel in Paris
Paris has accommodations to suit any budget, however, the most recommended places to stay are the neighborhood of Chaillot Latin quarter, Luxembourg and Montmartre area. Another option being the Buttes Chaumont Park, as well as the Porte de Versailles, Vincennes, perfect for tourists who value peace and tranquility.
Tourists can find cheap paris hotels for less than 45€. If you are looking for privacy and space, you can book a luxury apartment, townhouses and houseboats. Tourists for whom money is not a problem can accommodation in any luxury hotel, like the Palace of seven top luxury hotels in Paris. The four-star hotels also offer luxury at affordable prices, Paris counts more tan 200 of these.
Cheap hotels in Paris run from those cosy three stars hotels to cheap hostels, on the other extreme you will find furnished apartments and villas, more expensive and exclusive. Paris is the capital of France and a popular tourist destination in Europe, which receives millions of visitors per month, therefore, offers many housing options to meet different needs. Although an apartment in Paris tend to be expensive, the city also has its own share of budget hotels.
To get rooms in cheap paris hotels, tourists will be looking in the suburbs of Paris to find lodging. You can easily book hotel accommodation in the range of € 55 to € 100, depending on the facilities offered and location of the hotel in question. The rates are much lower in the suburbs of Paris and tourists can find rooms as cheap as 45 €/ night.
Hotels in the suburbs
The surroundings, in the suburbs, are logically much more peaceful and less expensive, however, tourists could be spending more time and money traveling back to the city centre to see the main attractions. On the other hand, students and backpackers can book accommodation in any of the hostels in Paris. Some of these are Youth hostels with partner universities, and are administered by the French Federation of Youth Hostel and other institutions.
Tourists who want to be close to major attractions should book a hotel in central Paris, much more expensive than in the suburbs, but that ensures to spend less time on buses, trams and cars and more time spent and to enjoy Paris tourism.
Last but not least, to find a hotel at a decent price in Paris, or cheap paris hotels, it is very important to avoid high season (from May to September). Otherwise, you may really have to look far into the suburbs to find a cheap hotel, and will have to travel for more than 1 hour every day, reducing therefore the time available to enjoy your vacation and visits. Another point is also that you will spend less time standing in line if you go off season, especially to Disneyland Paris

tips to book a cheap hotel
Between taking time off from work, travel planning, booking tickets, packing and shuffling your family from point to point, it's easy to feel like you need a vacation from your vacation.
These free online tools can ease your pain and help you save money by finding deals, keeping track of your itinerary and organizing your trip before you leave home.
TripIt.com: The mother of all travel web sites, TripIt organizes all of your scheduled events -- flights, tours, restaurant reservations and car rental -- into one single itinerary you can view by computer or mobile phone. Simply forward your confirmation emails to plans@tripit.com, and this travel website compiles a master travel schedule along with locations, maps, contact information and weather forecasts for each planned event.
"Few people have every element of their trip coming from the same provider," says Jason Clampet, senior online editor at Frommers.com. "You might book your hotel through TabletHotels.com, your airline ticket through JetBlue.com and your restaurant reservation through OpenTable.com. ... Having all of that combined makes traveling very easy."
TripIt has a pro version that offers several features including tracking frequent-flier mile awards and fare deals, but this free travel website will do for casual travelers, Clampet says.
Flybudget.com: Ann Lombardi, co-founder of The Trip Chicks, a travel agency in Atlanta, says that travelers can save 20 percent to 40 percent off airline fares to expensive locales by breaking up their trip. Instead of flying directly into a pricey hub, travelers can save money by flying into the closest major airline hub and taking a budget airline to their final destination.
"This is not for the overpacker," Lombardi says. "On (international) budget airlines, they measure luggage by weight, not by piece. You're allowed a certain amount of weight and for every pound over, you pay a fee."
While you can't book flights through Flybudget.com, this travel website helps you research which budget airlines are available for your route. Then, you can save money by booking directly on the airlines' web sites.
Google Translate: Speak your phrase of choice into your iPhone or Android cellphone and this app will not only translate and play it back in any of 22 languages, but also write it in an additional 34. The app is free and is infinitely useful for off-the-grid travel, but there's a catch. While the app may be cheap, international data plans required to access the app abroad can add up fast.
"People are really concerned about the dollars and cents of using a smartphone abroad," says Jason Clampet. "People are still very cautious and when they are abroad, they're relying on old-school methods instead of high-tech." For those who fear international data charges, Clampet suggests sticking with an old-fashioned language dictionary.
AwardWallet.com: The best way to save money on travel is to let someone else pay for it. Designed to organize your frequent-flier miles, hotel and credit card points and gift cards, this online travel tool keeps track of when points expire, ensuring that your rewards won't go unused. Lombardi says that the site is particularly useful for those saving hotel points or frequent-flier miles for a big trip over lengthy periods of time.
"Many people waste frequent-flier miles because it's hard to monitor when points with different airlines actually expire," she says. "If you're saving frequent-flier points from different airlines over several years, it's more efficient to keep on top of all your points through AwardWallet.com."
Airbnb.com: For families and groups, condo and house rentals frequently offer lower weekly rates than hotels as well as amenities such as kitchens that can substantially reduce food costs while traveling.
Airbnb.com allows homeowners to rent out anything from a spare couch to a spare mansion at any price they choose. That means you can save money by negotiating unheard-of travel deals, like a fully equipped studio in the heart of Paris for $80 per night.
BiddingTraveler.com: If you want the swank and pampering of a hotel, bid low to save money. "I like cheap paris hotels 's hotel bids, but the trick is to know what property you'll likely receive and exactly what to bid," says Chris Guillebeau, founder of the travel savings site Travel Hacking.
Enter BiddingTraveler.com, an online travel tool that shows you what hotels Priceline is offering in a specific area, what bids they've recently accepted and rejected, and a recommended bidding strategy for getting the best deal. Once you know how low local hotel room rates have dipped to lure in travelers, BiddingTraveler walks you through the actual bidding and booking process. The site recently touted four-star digs in downtown Chicago as low as $54 per night.

prices in Paris real estate higher than ever
Paris Apartments Keep Going
 |
| Paris luxury |
Residential values in the French capital climbed almost 18 percent in 2010 following a 4 percent decline a year earlier, according to Paris Chamber of Notaries data based on prices per square meter. By the same measure, London had a 1 percent increase and Manhattan was almost flat. Since 2005, Paris prices are up 40 percent, while values across France are little changed, according to the brokers' lobby, FNAIM. "Paris proved itself even more as a safe and sustainable investment option," says Bachmann, a partner at Paris Property Group, which last year handled 25 deals worth €40 million ($56 million).
It's the locals—not American or English couples looking for a pied-à-terre—who are driving up prices. The French are shunning stock and bond markets and putting money into Paris real estate at a time when fewer owners are selling properties and little new stock is coming into the market. Transactions last year were 9 percent below the average for the past decade, Chamber of Notaries research shows. Says Roger Abecassis, president of Consultants Immobilier Group, a chain of 10 brokerages: "It's a French market."
The upshot: The City of Light is becoming ever more unaffordable. "We have reached prices that are so high that there are no first-time buyers," says Sebastien Kuperfis, a director of property brokerage chain Junot Investissements. Data compiled by Jacques Friggit, an economist with the French government, show that Paris prices are rising at their fastest rate relative to disposable income since World War I. Record-low interest rates and banks' willingness to grant longer-term loans are part of the reason for the runup. Paris, with its strict zoning laws, also suffers a chronic shortage of new housing stock. Last year construction companies broke ground on just 2,785 new homes in the 20 districts, or arrondissements, of Paris, which has a population of 2.23 million.
The biggest price gains were in the "Triangle d'Or," a fashionable neighborhood in the 8th arrondissement bordered by the Champs-Elysées and Avenue Montaigne. Prices there advanced 38 percent in 2010, according to the notaries' chamber. The priciest Paris properties fetch upwards of €30,000 a square meter, according to Philippe Menager, co-founder of the property brokerage of the same name. Menager says he sold two apartments overlooking the River Seine near the Musée d'Orsay for €50,000 a square meter and one near the Bois de Boulogne for a similar price.
A lack of transparency is helping drive the surge in values. Property title deeds aren't public, and data compiled by notaries, who handle the legal paperwork in real estate transactions, are as much as six months out of date.
Friggit predicts home values across France will likely decline for at least five years, to return to pricing levels relative to incomes that have prevailed since 1965, though he could not say when the adjustment would begin. "Naturally I'm getting a bit worried," says Kuperfis, "because trees can't keep growing to the sky."
