Hallo Fleur, It my be ok but be careful of scams! Check out as much as you can about this person. I have seen similiar things happen with businesses. Cheers steve

As to all rules there are exceptions. I have just found out that I can only renounce my NZ citizenship if I have another citizenship. German law states that I can hold my NZ citizenship if it is difficult or am unable to renounce it. So maybe this is possible. Never the less your comments would be appreciated. cheers steve

Thank you all for your comments.I do not intend to give up my NZ citizenship.I did however find this interesting: The right of a person to live and work in France depends on their citizenship as follows: Non-European Union Citizens: A Carte de Séjour, also known as a Titre de Séjour, is a residence permit required by French law for any non-European Union citizen staying in France for a period longer than three months, if a vistor has a short stay visa (visa court séjour) orsix months, if a visitor has a long-stay visa (visa de long séjour) European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) Citizens: All EU citizens from the original accession countries, and EEA citizens and their family members have the right to live and work in France and do not require a work or residence permit. Note: The non-EU/EEA spouse and dependent family members of an EU citizen in France are entitled to the same rights as an EU citizen to live in France, however within two months of arrival in the country they must apply for a residence permit (Carte de Séjour) and will not be entitled to all rights afforded EU/EEA citizens in France. "Family members" are parents, and children under 21 years of both the EU citizen or their non-EU spouse.More under    http://france.angloinfo.com/countries/france/residency.asp Cheers steve
