we support you at all stages of the process to make your life in France easier.

Getting ready, settling down, day-to-day life...
successfully moving abroad is not something we can improvise !

Immigration

We prepare your applications to be sent to the Prefecture. We help in particular with residency permits and cards as well as DCEM for your children. We can also assist you with naturalisation applications.

We study your needs and support you from your first house visits until you move into your new accommodation. We offer you all the related services to make your arrival as pain free as possible. This includes creating bank accounts, organising water subscription contracts, and selecting schools for your children.

Administration

We are responsible for registering you with Social Security and for all your other administrative applications: CAF, changing you driving licenses, obtaining a "Carte grise". We help you to fully integrate into your new country. We offer sessions that introduce you to French culture and help you understand the different French systems like the school, medical and professional systems. We aim to make your daily life easier by giving you advice on various personal and family steps that need to be completed at the town hall (Mairie), the prefecture and with the French Treasury.

I really enjoyed working with Domitille and your company - everything went smoothly and we fly to the USA on Monday.  Domitille has a wonderful demeanor - always positive, always time for me - really a wonderful person to work with, especially in this line of work where clients can be quite emotional and stressed out while moving their families.

Je me trouvais dans une situation qui semblait inextricable lorsque j'ai fait appel à votre société. Un peu désespérée, je tournais en rond dans mon dossier, malgré de nombreuses lettres recommandées qui tentaient de justifier mes requêtes...mais qui restaient sans réponse! Je n'imaginais pas que la solution pourrait arriver aussi rapidement, lorsque je vous ai contacté. Accueil, convivialité, écoute, compréhension fine des situations, efficacité, détermination...toutes ces qualités de Laurence ont permis de débrouiller rapidement ma situation. JE RECOMMANDE VIVEMENT !!

From the start, I appreciated your comprehensive explanations of the Parisian housing timing and obstacles. This was helpful as we planned the timing of our relocation and lead us to recalibrate our expectations and traveling plans. Your timely answers helped us identify what was available in the market and understand the opportunities and constraints. Thank you so much Chiara.

As a foreigner who does not speak French, I got a lot of help from Chiara. I had to do a video call to find an apartment because I could not come to France. Chiara was always willing to help me. I am very satisfied with her service and would like to highly recommend to an expat who needs to relocate to France.

Ho contattato FamilyZen per farmi assistere nella ricerca di un appartamento a Parigi. Ero in difficolta’ perche’ il mercato degli affitti e’ molto teso e non avevo il tempo per gestire da sola la ricerca.
Sono stata subito contattata da Chiara, che essendo italiana poteva capire facilmente le mie esigenze. Effettivamente ci e’ riuscita alla perfezione !
Chiara e’ un’ottima conoscitrice del mercato immobiliare parigino e mi e’ stata accanto in tutto il processo, dalla ricerca dell’appartamento giusto per la mia famiglia alla stipula dei contratti di affitto, delle assicurazioni obbligatorie e delle utenze.
Sicuramente rimarro’ in contatto con lei e non posso che consigliarla, specialmente agli italiani che si trasferiscono per la prima volta a Parigi.

Io sono stata veramente soddisfatta della tua assistenza Chiara: in primis, l'appartamento che mi hai trovato è semplicemente perfetto, da ogni punto di vista. Inoltre, trovo che mi hai fornito un servizio davvero professionale ed efficiente. Conto di passare prestissimo a trovarti al cafeZen: magari mi faccio sentire prima.
