Working as a notary in France
Notaire is a regulated profession in France. Access requires a master's in law followed by specialised notarial training combining study and practice in an office, leading to the notarial diploma; the notaire is then appointed by the Minister of Justice to an office, as holder, partner or salaried notaire. The profession is open to French and EU/EEA nationals. Foreign lawyers cannot sign deeds but can work as clerks or on international files. Search for "notaire salarié", "notaire assistant", "clerc de notaire", "rédacteur d'actes" or "formaliste".
