How Can I Help?
Need help with French administration?
French administration can be difficult to navigate, especially when you're dealing with an official website, unfamiliar paperwork or a process that has to be completed in French.
Perhaps you've been asked to complete an online application and don't know where to start. Maybe you've recently started a micro-entreprise and aren't sure what you need to do next.
Whatever your situation, I can help you understand what's required, check your documents and guide you through the process in plain English.
Here are two of the specialist services I offer.
Do you need help completing an official French online application?
Many French administrative procedures are now completed online through official government portals. Unfortunately, these websites aren't always easy to navigate, particularly if French isn't your first language.
If you're unsure which documents you need, worried about making a mistake or simply don't have the time or confidence to complete the application yourself, I can take care of the process for you.
I can help with:
Registering a foreign vehicle in France (Carte grise)
Help with registering a foreign-plated vehicle in France, including preparing and submitting your application through the official ANTS online portal.
€120
RESIDENCE Permits (Titre de Séjour)
Help with an online application or renewal of your French residence permit, from checking the documents you need through to submitting your application online.
€120
Exchanging a foreign driving licence
Help with the process of exchanging your foreign driving licence for a French one, including checking your eligibility, reviewing your documents and submitting the application online.
€120
Registering or modifying a Micro-Entreprise
Help with registering a new micro-entreprise (auto-entrepreneur) or making changes to an existing business through the official online system.

How does this service work?
1. I will check your documents
I'll tell you exactly what documents are required and check that you have everything you need before we begin.
2. I'll explain the process
I'll explain what's involved in plain English, so you understand what is happening and what to expect next.
3. I'll submit the application
I'll complete and submit your application through the appropriate official online portal.
One simple fixed price: €120 TTC per application
The same fixed fee applies to each of the four applications above.
If you need to make more than one application at the same time, please get in touch. I may be able to coordinate the applications and offer a discount on additional applications.
Please note that any fees charged directly by the French administration are separate and are paid by you. The €120 fee covers Val Assist's time and assistance with your application.

Are you a Micro-Entrepreneur in France?
Running a micro-entreprise can be a great way to work for yourself in France, but there's still a steady stream of administration to keep on top of.
There are declarations to make, documents to understand, deadlines to remember and, occasionally, changes to the rules that you need to be aware of.
If you find the administrative side of running your business more difficult than the work itself, I can provide ongoing support throughout the year.
How can I help with your Micro-Entreprise?
The Micro-Entrepreneur Pack provides regular support to help you stay on top of the everyday administration that comes with running your business in France.
What's included?
1. Four account check-ins each year
We'll review your Urssaf account quarterly, looking at declarations, messages, documents and important deadlines, so that nothing is easily overlooked.
2. Help with everyday paperwork
If you receive a document or form that you don't understand, I can help you read, understand and complete the administrative paperwork associated with your micro-entreprise.
3. Help when the rules change
If a new requirement or change in the rules affects your business, you can contact me for help understanding what it means and what you need to do.
4. Bilingual guidance
I'll explain French administrative requirements in clear, straightforward English, helping you understand what is expected of you.
A simple way to stay on top of your business administration
The Micro-Entrepreneur Pack is designed for the everyday administration that comes with running a micro-entreprise.
It gives you regular check-ins throughout the year, as well as someone you already know and trust to contact when an administrative question arises.
€90 TTC per year
For larger or one-off matters—such as applying online to modify your business activities—additional assistance can be quoted separately.

Not sure which service you need?
If you're not sure whether I can help with your particular situation, please get in touch.
Explain what's troubling you, and I'll let you know whether I can help or point you in the direction of someone who can.
You don't have to understand the French system. That's what I'm here for.
