Citizens of EU (European Union) countries can travel freely in France;
and citizens of Australia, Canada, the United States and New Zealand,
among other countries, do not need any sort of visa to enter France, and
can stay for up to ninety days. However, the situation can change and it
is advisable to check with your embassy or consulate before departure.
Note that the British isitor's Passport is no longer aailable.
|
EU
citizens (or other non-visa citizens) who stay longer than three
months are officially supposed to apply for a carte de séjour,
for which you'll have to show proof of income at least equal to the
minimum wage.
|
However, EU passports are rarely stamped, so there is no eidence of how
long you'e beven in the country. If your passport does get stamped, you
can cross the border - to Belgium or Germany, for example - and re-enter
for another ninety days legitimately. |
