To open a bank account, you can contact the bank of your choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opening a bank account is essential if you are on a long stay<\/strong> in France. It enables you to receive your salary, reimbursements for healthcare expenses from the French Health Insurance, or social assistance payments from the CAF (Family Allowances Fund). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may also need a French IBAN for paying your income taxes if you receive a taxable salary or scholarship and are a resident of France.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
