You're probably not the only one asking yourself these questions
The booking process in France requires a few steps. First of all, you should know that each year there are a lot of requests for a few rental offers. While you are looking for a studio, a shared apartment, an apartment, or a CROUS accommodation, you have to do it early enough. ⏰
To rent student accommodation, you can go through an agency, a private landlord, or the CROUS services. Depending on the city and the type of accommodation, prices differ. It will take an average of € 600 monthly rent, and in Paris, this price rises to around € 800. For the CROUS, it is 350 € on average and 450 € in Paris. 👌
Then, you will be requested a lot of different documents. Most private landlords and agencies will ask for it ...
Show moreHome insurance is also compulsory as long as you rent a property in France! It is used to cover your home in the event of fire, flood, or theft, for example.
Housing insurance will no doubt be required by your landlord to enter your student accommodation. CAF (Caisse d 'Allocations Familiales) will also request it to obtain your APL (Personalized Housing Assistance, on average € 150 per month).
As an international student, it can be difficult to subscribe for housing insurance. Luckily for you, LivinFrance offers you suitable offers: online housing insurance, payment by credit card (the one from your country of origin works), and above all partners who speak English and French to answer all your questions! The subscription can be done within a few minutes...
Show moreThe Irrevocable Transfer Certificate (AVI), also called a bank guarantee, will be useful when you apply for a student visa for France. This is a document that proves that you have the necessary resources to live in France during your studies, around € 615 per month.
It is mandatory for any student applying for a long-stay visa (VLS-TS) to be able to provide this type of document. Most foreigners justify their resources with an irrevocable transfer certificate (AVI).
To get it, nothing could be simpler! All you need to do is ...
Show moreWhen you apply for a student visa for France, you will be asked for proof of accommodation. The French Embassy or Consulate must ensure that you will be accommodated before they can issue your student visa.
There are several ways to get this proof of accommodation. One of the safest ways is to get an accommodation certificate. LivinFrance can provide you with official documentation, a certificate of accommodation, and support, which will allow you to obtain your student visa. It is a certificate explaining that you can stay in one of our properties listed, with the address of the accommodation, date, and signature.
The LivinFrance accommodation certificate is proof of residence valid for the visa application in your country of origin. It's easy to get it! You just have to ...
Show moreSocial security, or Ameli, allows all persons residing in France (and not in possession of a European health insurance card) to be reimbursed for a part (between 30 and 70%) of their medical expenses.
The social security application (Ameli) takes a few steps. It will allow you to obtain your carte Vitale as a foreign student. You will need to present this card to be reimbursed directly for your medical expenses (doctor, medication, health examinations, hospital, etc.).
We explain the application procedure for social security (Ameli) step by step. To begin with, you need to...
