IMPACT – MEDIUM
France’s new immigration law has been ratified and published in the Official Journal. The bulk of the law addresses asylum seekers and illegal immigration, but it also contains some provisions related to high-skilled immigration, some of which may inhibit intragroup mobility. Key changes include:
Background: French President Emmanuel Macron introduced the legislation in February. The French Parliament signed it into law in August and the Council of State subsequently completed a legal review. The law was published last week. Authorities have not yet issued implementing decrees, but they are expected before March 2019.
Analysis & Comments: On the whole, the law is favorable to researchers, students and recent graduates. It is more restrictive to seconded employees, however. More will become clear about the impact on high-skilled immigration once implementing decrees are issued and authorities begin enforcing the law.
