My wife and I recently moved to Paris as I am working for a French company. We are under the Carte Bleue Europeene visa status which entitles her to a Carte De Sejour - Vie Privee et Familale and authorisation to work. She will be doing contract work as an online marketing consultant for a US company and will look for additional clients, which we understand is a requirement for the auto-entrepreneur status. Several questions about the first steps to get started:
- We haven’t gotten our Carte de Sejour yet. Do we need to notify the prefecture that she will be working as an auto-entrepreneur?
- Can she register as an auto-entrepreneur before getting the CDS?
- How long does the registration process for auto-entrepreneur typically take?
- Can she work before registering as an auto-entrepreneur and invoice for it once her business is registered?
- Is the registration process entirely online or are there steps required in person?
- My wife is 29. Is she eligible for ACCRE? If so, what is the process for doing so?
- Since I am salaried and paying social charges monthly, are we both covered by the health insurance or does her coverage start only when her registration is processed?
