Living in France – A few Tips

If you are a British citizen or British subject with right of abode in the UK, you do not require a visa to enter France.
A valid British passport must be held for entry to and exit from France as a visitor. There is no minimum passport validity requirement but you should ensure that your passport is valid for the duration of your visit. You must also carry proof of identity at all times.
French health insurance is administered by the social security system; “Sécurité Sociale”, and your “Caisse Primaire d’Assurance Maladie”. For residents in France, a “mutuelle” (top-up insurance cover) covers the cost of healthcare that is not covered by a Carte Vitale. Mutuelle services are provided by insurance companies and there are many different offers to consider.
In order to obtain a social security card for health care; a “Carte Vitale”, you must first register with your local CPAM; you are advised to contact them in order to obtain details of the documents they require for registration. This is a must the French national health service works in a very different way to that of the UK, the main difference being that you often have to pay for your treatment upfront, and then claim the cost back from the authorities. This is something you have to bear in mind if you’re relocating to France. Costs are not always reimbursed in full either, leaving the patient to fund the shortfall, and this is where top-up health insurance (known as a complémentaire or mutuelle) comes in. Top tip: take out a top-up health insurance policy if you’re relocating to France, unless you are prepared to pay the extra charges yourself.
The UK basic state pension is payable in France. If you are moving to France from the UK you should inform the IPC of the changes to your circumstances. This will prevent any problems with your pension payments. It will also help you to get the right access to healthcare in France.
