Since July 1, 2007, French law has allowed other international students to work under the following conditions: A residency permit (VLS-TS, validated by OFII, or a residency permit in addition to a visa) marked “student†entitles the student to accept paid employment for up to 60% of the legally defined working year (or 964 hours per year), without prior administrative authorization. As for your spouse, you can ask the student advisor where you are currently enrolled about the ability of your spouse to accept employment. Better be sure than sorry. Bon jour.!
