What is home insurance?

Home insurance is a mandatory requirement in France!

As soon as you rent a house, apartment, room, or any accommodation with a lease, every tenant must have home insurance. It is not optional, it is required by law. Let us explain everything 😊

The landlord will ask for your insurance certificate during the check-in inspection (état des lieux). If you do not have it, the landlord is entitled to refuse your entry.

Home insurance protects your accommodation and your belongings against unexpected events such as extreme weather, vandalism, burglary, fire, water damage, and more. Without home insurance, if a problem occurs, for example, water damage, you will be financially responsible for the costs.
