Explained: What exactly is France's carte de resident?
Briefly

Foreigners in France who are not EU citizens must obtain a carte de séjour as proof of residency. Various types of cards exist, each tailored to different living situations such as work, studies, or family reasons. Notably, UK nationals affected by the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement have a unique WARP card allowing them to remain in France without rigorous conditions. The carte de résident offers a stable 10-year residency option, simplifying long-term living arrangements in France, and is not contingent on the holder's employment or education status.
There are many types of carte de séjour, depending on whether you're living in France as a professional, a visitor, or a student.
UK nationals who lived in France prior to 2021 have a separate regime when it comes to residency cards under the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement.
