Short-term Stay in France
Oct 13, 2008
Generally, to stay in France involves either finding a French employer who will arrange a visa, marrying a French citizen, joining the Foreign Legion, or becoming a student.
Since there is a no-visa agreement between France and the U.S., U.S. citizens can stay in France up to 3 months without a visa. Some people come over as a tourist for three months and hop back and forth from France to England for a week at a time in order to reset their 3-month tourist visa back in France.
