France continues to attract entrepreneurs, executives, and international talents seeking new opportunities. However, settling in France often requires careful preparation to protect existing assets, manage tax exposure, and adapt social protection to the local framework. 

Individuals arriving in France may hold savings, real estate, pensions, or life insurance arrangements in other countries. Understanding how French tax treaties apply is essential to avoid double taxation and to optimize any available exemptions or deductions. Appropriate planning helps maintain control over existing assets while remaining compliant with local regulations. 

Social protection is another key aspect for expatriates and foreign company directors. In France, certain guarantees and benefits can differ significantly from those in other countries. For example, specific solutions exist to ensure the social security coverage of company directors, including protection against income loss or unemployment, depending on their status. 

Family circumstances should also be reviewed, as marriage contracts, inheritance rules, and the taxation of cross-border income can affect both personal and professional projects.
