Digital nomad visa (never launched) / visitor-visa remote-work tolerance
Недоступно
France has never had a digital nomad or golden visa. The informal tolerance of remote work for foreign employers on the long-stay visitor visa was ended/clarified as not permitted in 2025; remote workers must use the entrepreneur/profession liberale or talent routes.
For self-employed people and freelancers carrying out a commercial, craft, industrial or liberal (professional) activity in France as their main occupation; the activity must be economically viable, match the applicant's qualifications, and generate at least EUR 1,867 gross per month (SMIC). First card valid 1 year (EUR 350 issuance tax, EUR 250 renewal), then a 4-year multi-year card is possible; renewal now requires A2 French and the civic exam (unless over 65). This is the main legal route for freelancers, as France has no digital nomad visa.
