Who it is for
Prepare before anyone sells to you.
Renting with U.S. documents
You need to make American income, savings, identity, and reference documents easier for a French landlord or agency to understand.
Coordinating a complex move
Remote work, self-employment, investments, pets, schools, healthcare, or a long stay create questions worth organising early.
The problem
France is beautiful. French admin is not always simple.
Before you book flights, sign a lease, or pay a relocation consultant, you need to know what documents you have, what you are missing, and which experts you actually need.
