Q:Do international residents need a bilingual French accountant (expert-comptable)?
Yes. Navigating French taxation, micro-entreprise versus SAS/SARL regimes, and international double-taxation treaties (such as the UK/US treaties with France) requires a qualified accountant who understands international income declaration rules.
Q:What legal insurances are required for French commercial activities?
Depending on your sector, professional indemnity insurance (Assurance Responsabilité Civile Professionnelle / RC Pro) or statutory 10-year construction insurance (Garantie Décennale) is required by law to protect against operational and third-party liabilities.
