FOREIGN STUDENTS: FORMALITIES TO RESPECT
Hiring a foreign student comes with several obligatory administrative formalities that are often long and difficult to manage. There are numerous obligations that come with these formalities, and they can vary based on the student’s status: if they’re hired on a permanent (CDI) or temporary-basis (CDD) contract, working part-time, on a work-study basis contract or if they’re an intern.
Be careful, as student work in France is highly regulated!
