American with French Wife - Insurance/Visa

7 years ago

Hi,

I looked in the forum and could not find an answer.

I am 63 years old American going to retire in France in a a couple of years. My wife is a French national.

We are trying to find out what kind of health insurance I need to purchase in order to get:

+ a short stay visa
+ long stay visa
+ residency permit

We are not sure if I have to get all the visas to get the residency permit.

The insurance requirement is also very confusing.

Do I need private insurance?

When would I receive French insurance?

Thanks for your help in advance.
