Insurance

During your stay in France, you will have to be insured to prevent the possible risks (accident, problem with housing, etc.). The two main insurances are the following ones:

- Liability insurance coverage

Anyone can unintentionally cause harm to others. Civil liability defined by law, creates the obligation to repair the caused damage. Insurers usually include a personal property liability guarantee in multi-risk home insurance, so be sure to check if your contract includes it.

- Home insurance

The rental risk guarantee is an obligation. The home insurance policy can be done with your bank or a private insurer and an online subscription is often possible:
