We’re arriving next month and need to know the paperwork.
What are the steps to register my address after moving to Carcassonne?
1 Answer
After moving to Carcassonne, you must register your new residence at the local town hall within eight days. Bring a valid ID, proof of address (rental contract or utility bill), and your birth certificate if you’re a non‑EU citizen. The staff will issue a residence certificate, which you’ll need for utilities, health insurance, and voting registration. If you’re staying longer than three months, you’ll also need to register with the national tax office and possibly apply for a residence permit. The town hall’s website provides downloadable forms and a checklist to ensure you have all required documents.
A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know Carcassonne.
