Allez voir sur le site du Consulat général de France à Tunis à la page:

Vous y trouverez des tas d'infos utiles et les renseignements
Bonne chance !
c'est assez simple, il vous faudra respecter les conditions prévu par la loi n° 68-7 du 08/03/1968 relative à la condition des Etrangers en Tunisie ainsi que le Décret n° 68-198 du 22/06/1968 réglementant l'entrée et le séjour des Etrangers en Tunisie tel que modifié par le décret n°1992-716 du 20/04/1992 pour pouvoir vivre en Tunisie, pour les formalités ça se passera entre plusieurs directions.
je suis a votre entière disposition pour plus d'amples informations
merci
Bonjour, je viens de lire votre message. Nous habitons à Djerba depuis Mai dernier. En fait les formalités sont assez simples mais il faut scrupuleusement suivre les étapes suivantes :
1. Il faut d'abord être en possession d'un acte de propriété (achat d'une maison) ou d'un contrat de location. Personnellement c'est cette solution que nous avons choisi. Nous avons loué une maison pour une année (renouvelable). Nous avons établi ce contrat avec le propriétaire en précisant la chose suivante : il faut savoir que le montant des "impôts" (qui correspondent à notre taxe d'habitation + rammassage des ordures ménagères etc...) est de 5 % du montant du loyer annuel. Donc deux possibilités s'offrent à vous : soit vous allez tous les mois au bureau des recettes des impôts et vous acquittez de votre dû, soit vous le verser directement à votre propriétaire et c'est lui qui règle le service des impôts. C'est cette solution que nous avons retenue et que nous avons fait mentionner sur l'acte de location.
2. Dés que le contrat de location est établi, en trois exemplaires originaux, nous sommes allés (avec le propriétaire) faire enregistrer cet acte de location (coût : 20 DNT). Tamponné, paraphé, signé par un représentant de l'administration fiscale de la ville où vous résidez. (Preuve que vous êtes en règle !)
3. Puis nous sommes allés, toujours avec le propriétaire, faire enregistrer "l'acquittement des taxes au titre des impôts". Je ne me souviens plus du nom de l'organisme car tout était écrit en arabe. Bref, toutes ces démarches (Banque comprise) ne nous ont pris que 2 heures et demie !
4. Ensuite, avec l'ORIGINAL de votre contrat de location + votre passeport vous devez ouvrir un compte dans une banque locale. Compte en devises convertibles.
5. Nous avons ensuite effectué un premier virement en rentrant en France du montant du loyer annuel + les taxes : de ce côté là on est tranquille pour une année. Mais vous devez ensuite effectuer chaque mois un virement de votre banque française à votre compte en banque en Tunisie. L'idéal est un minimum de 600 euros par mois. Ceci afin de prouver à l'administration tunisienne que vous pouvez vivre en Tunisie avec des revenus qui proviennent de France. Bien entendu vous utilisez votre argent comme bon vous semble. Mais attention, les euros qui arrivent sur votre compte, sont convertis en dinars, mais l'inverse est impossible: ce qui veut dire, que si vous aviez besoin de rentrer en France et d'effectuer un virement dans l'autre sens : c'est IMPOSSIBLE. Vous pourrez faire une demande de carte bleue en même temps. Mais vous n'aurez pas de carnet de chèques !
6. Ce n'est qu'en réunissant toutes ces conditions que vous pourrez ensuite faire une demande de carte de résident. Attention, certaines personnes nous avait dit que 4 virements consécutifs de 400 euros suffisaient. Ce n'est pas exact. En effet, lorsque nous nous sommes rendus au commissariat de police pour déposer notre demande, le commissaire, très sympathique nous a fait comprendre que cela "ne suffirait certainement pas !" Nous avons donc décidé de différer notre demande. Nous la ferons en Octobre prochain, date à laquelle nous vivrons définitivement là bas.
Pour la demande de carte de résident il faut réunir les documents suivants : Votre passeport L'original de votre titre de propriété ou votre contrat de location (supérieure à une durée de 6 mois) Un extrait de casier judiciaire n° 5 Copie intégrale de votre acte de naissance 5 photos d'identité 2 timbres fiscaux de 10 DNT chacun une attestation bancaire de votre banque tunisienne (elle sera établi par le directeur de la banque et précisera notamment, le montant de votre virement mensuel et le solde de votre compte). Le délai d'obtention de votre carte provisoire est de 3 à 4 semaines. Puis vous recevrez votre carte de résident, valable un an et renouvelable chaque année. Je pense ne rien avoir oublié. Bonne chance à vous.

Nous serons début 2009 résidents en Tunisie. Nous avons déjà ouvert un compte bancaire en devises convertibles.
Si j'ai bien compris votre exposé, il n'est pas possible de convertir des dinars en euros pour un séjou temporaire en France!
pouvez vous m'éclairer?
cordialement
Avec un compte en dinars convertibles, il est permis de changer les dinars en devises étrangères.

Petite question à laquelle je n'ai pas obtenu de réponse.
ou puis-je trouver un Sommier à lattes articulées. J'ai trouvé les matelas mais de sommier.
Salut louminique

On peut passer commande également.

bonjour, nous souhaitons nous installer à djerba. nous voudrions savoir s'il y a une grosse différence entre le statut de résident ou celui du non résident. Sachant que nous partons à la retraite la bas.
quel est le meilleur statut pour un retraité français?
Faut il faire venir ces meubles de france et sur quel base est calculé la taxe ou est il préférable d'acheter sur place. nous sommes allés sur les quelques sites de mobilier mais il me semble pas très design du genre alinéa.

Hi everyone,
I’ve got a job offer in Cebu and I’m currently negotiating the financial terms...
For those of you who are experienced or expats there, could someone help me evaluate the cost of living so I can get an idea of my monthly budget?
- Rent for an apartment or small house (2 people) - Miscellaneous expenses: utilities, electricity, phone, internet, insurance - Local taxes or fees?
Thanks for your help, tips, and experiences!

Hi,
I’m leaving on September 4th for Vancouver as a tourist for 6 months.
My boyfriend works there, so I’m going to visit him. I’d like to take the opportunity to learn English at a school during October and November.
Could you recommend any schools—price, activities, location, reputation, etc.?
Also, any good health insurance suggestions?

Hi! I’m 76 and have traveled a lot in my life, and now I’m looking to settle in Réunion.
I’ve seen a retirement community in Saint-Pierre (Ravine des Cabris) and a residence called Village d’Or in Sainte-Clotilde. I have a feeling that living in Saint-Joseph might be better. I’ve submitted both applications and would love your thoughts—also if you know of any friendly small residences for rent, or if you have experience living there.
My pension is 1,460 €.
Thanks so much for your help! Looking forward to hearing from you—warm regards to everyone

After living for many years in the West (Belgium, Italy, Switzerland),
I’ve decided to return and settle in Cameroon, my home country.
Currently an entrepreneur in real estate and transport, I’m looking for a partner / partners / foundation to collaborate on an agriculture project, as I own 10 hectares of land.
The hectares have remained unused for years due to a lack of financial means, since the project requires what I’d call a considerable investment. As the main stakeholder, I have a minimal contribution to offer.
I believe it’s time to bring this space to life to meet pressing needs and serve the common good of society.
The project is simple:
1) Grow maize + build a processing plant to produce flour
2) Open a mini supermarket + a modern bakery using the flour for pastries, etc.
3) Build a healthcare service
4) Build a nursery and primary school
5) Construct free housing for retired expatriates in exchange for their voluntary contributions in their respective fields.
This is a project I truly believe in, and I invite anyone interested to add their personal touch—whether through advice, guidance, or involvement.
Note: This project has national and international potential in terms of employment.
My slogan: To be visibly useful to society
You’ve got to dare, even if it makes you tremble.

Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Have a great day

Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
