French visas for moving to France
Legal support through our immigration partner Lexidy France
If you’re planning a long-term move to France and you’re not an EU citizen, you will likely need a visa.
At Ibanista, we work in partnership with Lexidy France, a team of trusted immigration lawyers based in Paris who specialise in helping international clients secure French visas and residency.
HERE’S WHERE MANY VISA APPLICATIONS BECOME DIFFICULT
1️⃣ Choosing the wrong visa category
France offers several long-stay visa pathways, and selecting the wrong one can delay your plans significantly.
2️⃣ Preparing the right documentation
Applications require financial proof, insurance, housing details, and administrative documents that must align with French requirements.
3️⃣ Navigating the legal process alone
Without clear legal guidance, it’s easy to miss small details that can create delays or require restarting the process.
