What type of worker, employment situation, occupation or professional activity is this pathway actually designed for?

This pathway is designed for a posted employee whose employer, operating outside the European Economic Area, asks them to fulfil their employment contract by completing a one-off mission in a French company (or organisation) in order to provide a service to a French client or on its behalf, where the mission or service obligation exceeds 90 days.

Does the applicant need a job offer, employer, sponsor, transfer relationship or other employer involvement? What is important about that employer relationship?

The employer or the French company benefiting from the service must obtain a work permit from the French authorities, and the applicant submits that permit with the visa application.

What are the few decisive professional characteristics of the pathway: occupation, qualifications, experience, salary, skill level, shortage status, labour-market condition or equivalent?

Limits of the record
  • Searched the France-Visas posting section: no occupation, qualification, experience or salary criterion is stated; the exemption list applies only to postings of 90 days or less.

What work does the permission allow? Is the holder tied to an employer, occupation or sector? Can family accompany where clearly established?

With a "travailleur temporaire" VLS-TS a work authorisation is mandatory in order to work; unless exempt, the missions in France must relate to the functions carried out in the home-country company. The official source does not state whether family members may accompany the holder.

  • Family accompaniment not stated.

How long is the permission normally granted for, how is it renewed, and what longer-term residence direction exists if officially stated?

If the mission exceeds 90 days, a long-stay visa marked "travailleur temporaire" is issued, to be validated within three months of arrival. The official source does not state its exact validity, renewal or any longer-term residence direction.
