Steps to Obtain a French Business Creation Residence Permit

Step 1: Preparation of the business project and financial model

First of all, you need to prepare a business plan and financial model of your project in French or English.

• The goal of the business plan is to demonstrate a real company that will benefit the country and achieve stable revenue within 1–2 years, as well as show how you plan to accomplish this.
• For the financial model, you can prepare either an extended P&L for 5–10 years or a DCF. The key is attention to detail. Outline all revenue streams, planned expenses for personnel, and taxes. The model must be logical, consistent, and aligned with the realities of the French economy (for example, a salary of €800 for a software developer would raise some concerns).
