Working as an architect in France
The title « architecte » is protected in France. To use it and sign as project architect (for example on building permits above the legal floor-area threshold), you must be registered with the Ordre des architectes, which requires the Diplôme d'État d'architecte plus the HMONP, or a recognised foreign qualification. EU diplomas are usually recognised under European rules; other diplomas go through a recognition procedure. Without registration, you can still work as an employee. Search for architecte, architecte DE, architecte chef de projet, collaborateur d'architecte or architecte BIM. Fluency in French and knowledge of French building codes (PLU, RE2020, ERP rules) matter as much as design skills.
