The whole move to France, in the order it actually happens.

50 modules. They start at whether you'd even qualify and end at a French passport. Written by two Frenchmen who run these dossiers every week, and rechecked against the official sources every month.

It's late. You have eleven tabs open.

One is a service-public page you have been half-translating for twenty minutes. One is a Reddit thread from 2019. One is a Facebook group where somebody's cousin has strong opinions about the tax treaty.

You opened the laptop to find out if this is even possible for someone like you.

You're closing it with more questions than you started with.

Why it takes people four months

All of it is public. Working out which half applies to you is the job.
Tonight
Nine agencies. No way to tell which rules are yours.
With this open
  1. See which visas you'd qualify for
  2. Price the move against what you earn
  3. Validate the VLS-TS within 3 months
  4. Open a bank account
  5. Register with CPAM
  6. +86 more steps, in the order they have to happen
One path. It starts at whether you qualify and ends at a French passport.

So where do you stand right now?

Where are you with this?
Who's coming?
What can't you get a straight answer on?
All of that stands between you and this.

Why we built it

Clients arrive having been careful about all of it. We still see the same handful of things every month.

Someone files for a visitor visa because it looked like the simple one. Then they find out it forbids them from working, and that a Talent permit was open to them the whole time.

Someone gets refused on proof of funds they could easily have shown. They lose the fee and the flights. Then they wait four months for another appointment.

Or someone sells the house back home in October rather than March, and finds out France has a view on the gain.

None of it is carelessness. Nobody ever put the whole thing in front of them in order, with the dates attached.

So we wrote down everything we keep repeating. This is it.

Maxime RoseauMaxime RoseauCo-founderMaster of Business and Communication, Université Nice Sophia Antipolis

Maxime handles the residency path end to end. Which visa you'd qualify for, the consulate file, OFII validation, prefecture appointments, renewals, changes of status, and the naturalization dossier at the far end of it. He also covers what actually decides whether a landing goes well: rental dossiers, guarantors, utilities, proof of address.

Aurelio MauriciAurelio MauriciCo-founder, based in Aix-en-ProvenceMaster of Business Law, Aix-Marseille Université III

Aurelio handles money and paperwork. French bank accounts and the FATCA wall Americans keep hitting, tax residency, cross-border reporting, CPAM onboarding, ANTS filings. He runs live client files through these systems every week. The modules say what a branch actually asks for, not what the official text says it will ask for.

From people who used it to decide, then to move

i bought this before i had decided anything, just to find out if france was even realistic for me. ran my own numbers through the tax and cost tools in one evening and finally got a straight answer instead of a forum argument. by the time i said yes i already knew what it would cost and what came first

MRMegan R.Bought before deciding, now in Montpellier, Feb 5, 2026

What sold me is that it hands you the whole move as a sequence. I always knew my next three tasks and what depended on what. I did not miss a single deadline, because nothing was left to memory.

DKDaniel KranstTalent route, Paris, March 9, 2026

The school enrollment dates alone were worth it. We would have landed in August and found out we had missed the window for the older one. It also caught that our rental file needed a guarantor we did not have.

Before you buy

I haven't decided yet. Is it too early to buy this?+
It's the best possible time. The first two phases exist to answer that exact question. Which routes you'd qualify for. What the move costs against your real income. What you'd owe on both sides. If the honest answer turns out to be no, or not this year, you'll know in an evening rather than in month four. The other 48 modules keep for whenever you come back to it.
Can't I find all of this for free online?+
You can. That's what people do for four months. Every rule lives on a government site, in French, spread across nine agencies. Nothing tells you which parts apply to you or what order to do them in. You're paying for the filtering and the sequencing.
Will it fit my situation?+
Those three questions further up were a short version of the profile. Inside it asks more: your routes, your household, where you're thinking of landing, roughly when. The plan rebuilds around your answers. Somebody weighing a visitor visa in Montpellier and a Talent hire already booked into Paris get different tasks, different deadlines, different numbers. Not sure yet is an answer the app accepts, and you can change any of it later.
How current is the information?+
Every figure connects to its official source and re-verifies every month. Each module carries the date it was last checked. One click takes you to the page it came from, on service-public or irs.gov.
Why not just hire a relocation agency?+
You can, and it usually runs into the thousands. One hour with an immigration lawyer costs more than this whole thing. Agencies also start from the assumption that you're going, so they're no help with the part you're stuck on. And the support ends when the engagement does.
Is this a subscription?+
No. One payment, once. Nothing to cancel, and no tier above it.
What if it isn't for me?+
14 days, money back. Open everything and run it against your real numbers. If it isn't right, email us. No form and no interview.
How long do I keep access, and does it save my progress?+
For life, and yes. Nothing expires and everything saves as you go. Close the tab in April, come back in September, and you'll land on the same task.

So. Could you actually do this?

You know how the next six months go if nothing changes. Same tabs. Same thread. Same question sitting at the back of your head. Open it tonight instead. By the end of the evening you'll have an answer, whichever way it falls.
