| Introduction
You’ve just arrived in France to study and you need an electricity and/or gas supplier for your accommodation, right? You’ve come to the right place, we’ve summarised everything you need to know 😊
Two things to remember:
01 In France, it’s usually the tenant who must sign an electricity/gas contract when he moves into the dwelling. You can do this either by phone or online, on the website of the supplier you have selected.
02 There should not be a minimum commitment period: you may end your contract whenever you want. Of all suppliers, we recommend Vattenfall & we explain why below.
