很多中国留学生在法国完成学业后，首先想的是找工作、转身份，比如换工作居留。但其实，从事自由职业在法国也是可行的。比如做自由艺术家、个体户、开公司办商业居留等等。用数字说话，在法国有3%的个体户是外国人，有5%的企业老板是外国人。
在政策上，法国鼓励创业，对于个体户和开办微小企业给予了很多政策支持和税务优惠。但作为外国人，在法国开办公司的确有很多不易，比如语言欠佳、对文化不熟悉、沟通有障碍、不容易获取信赖感。所以，不妨从个体户干起。
注册个体户，手续非常简单，只要进行简单的注册、填写自身基本情况和营业内容清单、缴纳少量的注册费，即可。当个体户，不涉及老板和员工的复杂问题，成本低，税收低，而且只要你个人对业务能够把控，在客户群里建立起口碑，就为之后的发展奠定了基础。
但要注意，个体户的身份本身是不能办理居留的，要做个体户，首先要拥有在法可以工作的居留，比如学生居留、工作居留等等。还有一种情况就是，在法国你拥有自己的事业，可以赚钱，但不是雇员，根据2006年7月24日出台的法案，你可以从事职业活动，但前提也是要获取一个合法居留。当然，如果是欧盟居民，一般不涉及这个问题，除非有特殊限制。
不过，以个体户为基础，为之后申请商业居留或自由职业者居留做了很好的铺垫。对于需要赚钱的学生或本身已有一份工作的雇员来说，也是创收的好手段。
如果你已经在法国住下来，可以在住址所在地的警察局申请相关居留。申请的时候，根据不同的居留性质要填写不同的表格，提交清单上要求的资料。比如商业居留，除了个人信息，还需要提供经营预算和商业方案等。总之，要能证明你在法国经营的能力和可行性。
如果你提交的资料完整，警察局会给你收据和临时居留卡，然后你就可以开始职业活动了。不过，如果你的居留申请最终被拒，你要停止相关经营活动。
也有一些外国人，不在法国长期居住，但希望在法国独立发展事业，那么在开始之前，需要向法国的警察局或企业管理机构申请。如果你提交的材料完整、计划可行，你将会收到警察局发放的临时居留卡，如果你申请成为个体户，要获得CFE的注册许可。
有些情况下，你要提交一些额外的材料。比如，收购交易基金、租赁管理、成立子公司、设立外资法人等。
如果你要注资一家现有的公司，需要提交这家公司的注册材料（公司的kbis一般不要少于3个月）、主管机构的意向书、公司章程、租赁合同、商业地址、企业财政状况和缴税证明等。

Residence & Artists Visa UK
UK immigration calls on artists to apply for Tier 1 visas
A recent UK Home Office report states that they wish to encourage figures from the arts with an international reputation to apply to come to live in the UK under a Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa. There is a cap of 1,000 on the number of these visas which can be issued annually but in 2012, only about 50 visas were issued. The likely reason why so few visas were granted is because only a tiny minority of "top people" qualify under the Tier 1 Exceptional Talent Visa.
Replacement for Tier 1 (General)
The Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa stream opened on 9th August 2011. It was intended as a partial replacement for the Tier 1 (General) visa which was abolished in April 2011. The easier Tier 1 General visa category was very successful with about 13,000 highly skills migrants moving to the UK each year.
The Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa allows a maximum of only 1,000 people with a 'global reputation' to do so. In reality, however, the numbers granted these visas have come nowhere near reaching the cap. Only seven were granted in 2011.
The Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa was intended to allow leading figures from the arts, academia and the sciences to come to work in the UK. To qualify applicants must first gain the endorsement of one of four 'competent bodies' who will be able to confirm that the applicant truly is a world-leading talent.
These bodies are The Royal Society, Arts Council England which can endorse up to 300 people a year, and The British Academy and the Royal Academy of Engineering which can endorse 200 people a year.
Only 50 Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visas issued in 2012
In 2012 only about 50 visas were issued. This report on the Home Office website seems to signal a desire to see more of the visas granted.
Sanwar Ali of workpermit.com said '"The problem with the Tier 1 Exceptional Talent Visa category is that hardly anyone qualifies for it. Unless the Home Office makes it easier to qualify for this visa category it will remain the case that very few applications are made and very few visas are issued each year. It will likely remain the case that most highly skilled individuals will have to find an employer and come under the Tier 2 visa scheme."
Immigration minister Mark Harper has said that, if the cap of 1,000 was ever reached, he would consider raising it.
