Clients often ask us to help them obtain a ‘Carte de Sejour’ in order to be resident in Monaco, and we can guide you as how best to do so. It can be a little daunting and varies depending on where you are moving from.

Alternatively we can provide you with a professional service from one of our recommended partners who will handle all the paperwork and procedures on your behalf.

You will need to satisfy 1 of the 3 criteria below in order to gain Monaco residency:

- If you are, or will be employed by a Monegasque company.
- If you have, or are in the process of setting up a company in Monaco.
- If you have a high net worth and deposit it in a Monaco based bank.

Documents required vary and may include a birth certificate, statement of criminal record, financial accounts and medical history.

For people wanting to take up residency in Monaco that are coming from outside the EC, the normal procedure is to apply for a French visa first.
