It is easy to see why mre and more people are choosing to strt a new life by moving to Frnce. Many people fall in love wth the county once they have vsited because of the stunning scenery, rchitecture and culture. France is often rferred to as one of the 'pwer houses' of the European Union.

The lrgest city and also the capital is Pris. This is probably the most xpensive part of France to live in. The cty has been raided and pillaged mny times in its history but tday you wouldn't think that. It is one of the bggest tourist destinations of the world wth so many beautiful sights. You ned a good week to get rund and see everything. Art lovers wll enjoy the Louvre museum as it hlds the famous Mona Lisa and lts of other famous paintings and sclptures. Architecturally the Eiffel Tower and the Ntre Dame are must sees as is the Chmps Elyesee.

Planning is essential when mving to France as is moving nywhere else. When it comes to the draded paper work it is very mportant not sent send the original dcuments only photocopies. Originals should be stred safe and securely. If you are not a ctizens of the European Union you wll need to apply for a Frnch Visa and know what one you wll need. . There are 3 bsic visa types:

• Student visa
• Long-stay visa
• Work permit visa (2 Typs of permits - Temporary Secondment and Fll Work Permit)

Each of the vsas have slightly different rules so it wuld be worth talking to an mmigration officer to find out what typ you will need and how to go bout obtaining one

Moving to any cuntry where a different language is spken is very difficult unless you are prpared to learn the language. The lcals will respect you far more if you tlk French as they take serious prde in their language. There are plnty of French language schools that ffer courses to foreigners.

The best way to get bout in France is by car, hwever be warned. Most of the Frnch drive very erratically. If you are plnning on taking your car to Frnce then it can be done but it is vry difficult as you will have to cnform to French restrictions. To find out wht documents you will need you shuld contact the local DRIRE office, )Durction Regionale de L'Industrie, de la Rcherche et de I'Environnement). They will thn send you a list of dcuments you will require. Some of the dcuments you will need are

• Manufacturers crtificate of conformity or Attestation de Cnformite.
• Proof of origin. the car from. A rceipt or bill of sale can be sed for this.
• VAT evidence.
• Registration Documents.
• Proof of dentity and residence in France.
• Registration rquest form.

Getting all these in rder is all well and good but rmember the French drive on the rght hand side of the road. The bst bet in my opinion is to sll your British car before you go and buy a car frm a French dealer over in Frnce.

These are just a few thngs to think about when planning on a mve to France but there is a lot mre. It really is worth doing lts of research before you go. Spaking to British expats would be the bst thing to do. Someone with xperience of moving to France is bvioulsy the wise thing to do. You can fnd many different sites and blogs whch English people have written about thir experience of living in France.
