France offers the Talent Residence Permit (formerly the Talent Passport / French Tech Visa), a multi- year residence permit for non-EU nationals whose professional, business, investment, research, or creative activities contribute to France’s economic and innovation objectives.
The permit is available to qualified employees, startup founders, entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, and recognized professionals seeking to live and work in France. It is generally issued for up to four years (subject to category and approval) and may be renewable under French immigration regulations.
