France: The Residence Card Many People Don't Know About
If you already hold a 10-year Carte de Résident, you may be eligible for a Carte de Résident Permanent, which offers the same rights but provides stronger long-term residence protection and does not require the usual 10-year renewal cycle.
Who Can Get It?
• People renewing their Carte de Résident for the second time and who still meet the required conditions.
• People aged 60 or over renewing their Carte de Résident may receive it automatically, unless they specifically request the "Résident de longue durée-UE" card instead.
Why Does It Matter?
• Same rights as a standard 10-year resident card.
• Greater long-term security of residence in France.
• Designed for permanent settlement in France.
Important Advice
Although French law states that eligible applicants should receive the permanent card, immigration experts note that some prefectures may simply process a standard renewal if the applicant does not explicitly request the permanent card. Therefore, when renewing your Carte de Résident, ask whether you qualify for a Carte de Résident Permanent.

RENTING IN FRANCE? TAKE NOTE OF THIS DATE.
A new update to France’s standard residential lease contracts will take effect on 1 October 2026.
From this date, updated lease agreements will include a “clause résolutoire”relating to unpaid rent, unpaid rental charges and failure to pay the required security deposit.
What does this mean for tenants?
It strengthens the contractual framework for dealing with unpaid amounts and can ultimately lead to termination of a lease when the legal requirements are met.
But there’s an important point: this does not mean instant eviction or automatic loss of your security deposit. The required legal procedure still applies, including a formal payment notice.
Who should pay attention?
Students, international residents, newcomers and anyone signing or renewing a residential lease in France from October 2026.
Before signing your next bail, read the termination clause carefully and make sure you understand your obligations as a tenant.
