John Hooper Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Can anyone help.Myself and wife are hoping to visit France for 6 months to search for properties.I do not work but my Wife is employed as a Business Training Assessor and is entirely Home Based.She can work anywhere subject to internet connection.She would have no contact with any French company and her work would be the same as it is in UK dealing with Apprentices in the Business world. Is a visitor visa for 6 months be OK. I have been attempting to obtain this information in UK without success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittlebitfrench Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Forget visa's for a minute. Your wife can't live and work in France doing what she does working for a UK based company. She could not do that before Brexit unless she set herself up as a French company offering such services. So yeah, you can't live in France for six months (or longer) earning a living from the UK on an internet connection. Are you looking to move to France or just buy a second home ?

crabtree Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 No she cannot. If she wants to work in France her employer has to apply for her Visa, and the employer will have to advertise the job and also to employ your wife the employer will have to prove that no EU citizen could do the job.

Jamessmith0901 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 If you plan on staying in France for more than 90 days, you will need to obtain a long-stay visa. As for remote work, it's best to check with authorities to confirm if a visitor visa is sufficient for your wife to work in France. Ensure you have sufficient financial means and health insurance coverage. Obtaining the correct visa before traveling is recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
