"The absolute best service you can get. Ann and her whole team have been absolutely crucial in getting my French visa and I could recommend everyone their service. I have even got my spouse and family their visas through Easystart. Also quite affordable honestly"

"Having never applied for a visa before my life, I assumed it would be easy… But after that first attempt got an immediate denial, I realized I needed help. That’s when I was recommended Easy Start. I had a free consultation with Ann. She is wonderful! I immediately felt at ease and signed up for their Visa service. I was assigned Anle, who I absolutely adore. She is so hard-working and has a heart of gold. She walked me through all the various documents necessary (which were not on the Visa website!), translating documents into French, guiding me through the entire process. At the end, Louis joined in to support the actual visa submission process, checking in and cheering me on. Needless to say, with such a great team, the second attempt was a success! I would highly recommend Easy Start for anyone who is considering moving to France! Don’t try to do it alone!"

They have guides and templates to use to explain procedures and how to write your letters needed for the visa. The customer service is amazing - they are very quick with responses and truly want to help you reach your goal of getting a visa. You can’t go wrong with using their services offered."

"Easystart was an absolute pleasure to work with from day one. They helped me choose the correct visa for my move to France, and then guided me through the complicated application process every step of the way, all the way through receiving my visa, opening my business in France, and getting integrated into the French social benefits program. I couldn’t have gotten my visa without their help, and I can’t recommend them highly enough."

"EasyStart listened to my dreams and goals and then walked me step by step through the process to make it happen. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the in’s and outs of different visas and guided me through the entire process like my personal super hero! If your dream is to live and work in France but you’re not sure how to do it, I highly recommend choosing EasyStart to help you make it happen. Changing countries is a HUGE challenge and it makes all the difference to have someone on your side!! I will forever be grateful to Ann and her team for their help and support. It was worth every penny."

mick review

"Where do I start with a five star review? They assisted me through a very complicated application for a carte vitale, French Health Insurance. Super professional, knowledgeable, attentive, and all with a friendly disposition, that made me feel that my problem mattered to them. It was only when EasyStart got involved that my problem with the French Authorities, which had been going on for 2 years, was resolved with a positive outcome. I am grateful for their support and very, very happy to recommend them."

"I honestly cannot recommend EasyStart highly enough. This team is incredible. I used their services to set up a micro-entreprise in France and also to help find me an apartment in Bordeaux. I had been getting nowhere fast by myself for months. They got on both projects immediately and I now have a registered company and I moved into my new apartment yesterday! If you're thinking of moving to France, save yourself a lot of heartache and bureaucratic gymnastics and hire EasyStart from the start. Thank you again for everything you've done for me - I truly believe I never could have made this move without you!"

mary review

"I spoke with multiple agencies before going with Easy Start, and with the other agencies it felt very transactional and like I was just another client out of many. With Easy Start you really feel their dedication and attention to you. Everything has a personalized touch, and they reply faster than any other agency I’ve seen, which is so appreciated given how stressful relocation can be. Anyone who has navigated the Parisian housing market knows how much of a headache it is. Enlisting Easy Start’s help has been worth every penny, and I was almost a little sad when I got my apartment earlier than expected because I would no longer work with this kind and professional team that has been so helpful to me. I am happy but not surprised to see all the other 5-star reviews. This agency deserves to be well-known, and I wish them all the success!"

jonas review

"I was in the position of wanting so badly to move to France, but I had absolutely no idea of how to get a long-term visa. After advising me on exactly what type of visa I should apply for, Easystart provided me with everything I needed to get moving: A list of the required documents, examples and templates of said documents, lots of advice and many meetings to review and revise my application. This paid off! I had been told that it would likely take at least two months for the consulate to process my application. To my utter shock, it took just TWO DAYS. Ann and her team had prepared me so thoroughly, that it seems I was a shoo-in and my application was approved. You changed my life and I absolutely could not have done it without you. I will tell everyone I know that if they want it, they can do it too."
