Three complementary areas of expertise in professional immigration
Immigration, social security, and posting workers are interconnected fields. Our comprehensive mastery of all three is a major asset to support you in the overall management of your obligations.
Immigration
Are you hiring international talent? Hosting employees on international assignments?
You must comply with several types of obligations: entry into the territory, work authorization, and residence rights.
We manage all types of professional immigration procedures and immigration statuses.
Social security
Are you recruiting foreign talent or hosting internationally mobile employees?
Depending on the employee’s status and that of their family, you must ensure they are affiliated with the French social security system. This ensures their protection, facilitates interactions with public administrations, and helps avoid complications that could impact both the individual and the company. The same applies to French employees returning from expatriation.
We assist you with social security affiliation or the reactivation of entitlements.
Posting workers
Are you hosting posted workers in France?
Posting workers is a specific type of mobility that involves several cross-cutting areas: immigration, social security, labor law, and taxation.
Moreover, as the host company in France, you share liability if the foreign employer fails to comply with legal obligations.
Our unique expertise enables us to assist you with all mandatory formalities related to the posting of workers in France.

Your questions
There are mainly two broad types of international mobility:
- professional mobility
- personal mobility
France Immigration only manages professional mobility, both towards France and internationally, to enable companies from all sectors to recruit foreign talent while complying with the destination country’s regulations.
These professional mobilities can occur within several frameworks, mainly: intra-group mobility (between two entities of the same group in different countries), posting of workers (in the context of service provision or subcontracting), and recruitment of foreign talent (either located abroad or already in France, such as in the case of a status change from student to employee).
Beyond this main approach to international mobility, one can also include academic mobility (students on internships, teachers, researchers…), tourist mobility, and mobility under international and humanitarian aid (refugees, asylum seekers…).
Impatriation refers to the process whereby a company undertakes immigration formalities to bring a foreign worker to France.
This term is used in a professional context as the opposite of expatriation, which refers to leaving to work abroad.
It can involve hiring a senior executive, a technician in a high-demand occupation, or intra-group mobility, for example.
It can be beneficial to entrust the management of international mobility cases to an expert for the sake of efficiency and speed. A thorough mastery of administrative procedures allows professional immigration experts to optimise case processing, simplify interactions between companies, foreign talent, and French administrations.
Moreover, their continuous monitoring ensures they stay up to date with the many changes in formalities that regularly occur in professional immigration. This provides companies with complete peace of mind, ensuring full compliance with and strict adherence to the rules of the host country.
Several professions may be interested in the services of an expert in international mobility management:
- international mobility managers in large companies, who have many movements to handle, understand the importance of compliance, and wish to rely on a trusted partner;
- HR managers or human resources departments, who want to depend on experts to optimise timelines while reassuring their impatriates and their families;
- leaders of small or medium-sized enterprises or start-ups, who seek rare skills and want to recruit foreign talent but lack knowledge of the rules and administrations, looking for efficiency and simplicity;
- operational staff in a company lacking certain resources or specialised, rare skills.
In all these cases, managing the international mobility of executives or employees, regardless of their status — impatriates or expatriates — requires real expertise and detailed knowledge of the rules and administrations. These are often complex cases, and France Immigration can help you ensure compliance with the laws of the relevant country.
