Frequently asked questions

Can a foreign student work in France?

Yes. With a valid « student » residence permit, you can work up to about 60% of legal working time (~964 h/year), with no separate work authorization (removed in 2021). Algerian nationals follow a specific regime (temporary authorization, ~50%).

How long must I reside in France to apply for citizenship?

As a general rule, 5 years of legal residence. Reductions exist (spouse of a French citizen, graduate in France, services rendered…). Language (B1 oral) and stable-resources conditions also apply.

What can I do if my visa is refused?

A refusal can be challenged quickly: an administrative appeal (RAPO) is possible within a short deadline after the decision, then the competent administrative court if needed. Every day counts.

Do your guides replace a lawyer?

No. These are personalized, indicative guides based on up-to-date official sources. They are not legal advice: for a complex situation, consult a professional or the préfecture.
