French Public Health CodeIn force

Updated 31 Oct 2023

Interns on active service receive, after service rendered, in accordance with the provisions of articles R. 6153-2 to R. 6153-2-3 :

1° Flat-rate monthly emoluments, the amount of which, which varies according to seniority calculated on the basis of the number of six-monthly internships completed and in which time spent on standby or in the special position known as "under the flag" is not taken into account, is set by order of the ministers responsible for the budget, higher education and health. These emoluments follow the trend in civil service salaries recorded by the Minister for Health; they are increased, for boarders with families, by a supplement the amount of which is calculated in accordance with the rules laid down in article 10 of the decree of 24 October 1985 relating to the remuneration of civil and military personnel of the State and personnel of local authorities for the family salary supplement.

Semi-annual training periods during which the actual activity lasted less than four months due to national service or availability are not taken into account for the calculation of seniority.

When one or more training periods have been interrupted for more than two months pursuant to articles R. 6153-13 to R. 6153-18 or R. 6153-25 , the emoluments paid during each corresponding additional training period carried out pursuant to article R. 6153-20 remain identical to those of the immediately preceding training period.

When one or more additional training periods are carried out in application of article R. 6153-20 for reasons other than those mentioned in the previous paragraph, the emoluments paid vary as follows:

-for the first additional semester, they remain identical to those of the immediately preceding training period ;

-for the other additional semesters, they do not vary according to the seniority of the persons concerned and are fixed in the aforementioned decree at an amount which cannot be less than that of the emoluments due for the first training period of the third cycle of medical studies;

2° Bonuses, allowances and reimbursement of expenses, the list and purpose of which are set by decree.

Common Questions

Working with a corporate lawyer in France — Q&A

Any time a strategic decision changes how the company is owned, governed or contractually bound — incorporation, fundraising, M&A, restructuring, shareholder agreements, or major commercial contracts. Earlier engagement always costs less than later remediation.

A notary (notaire) is a public officer who authenticates specific deeds (mainly real-estate transfers and certain family-law acts). A corporate lawyer (avocat) advises on strategy, negotiates and drafts company documents, and represents you in disputes. The two roles complement rather than overlap.

Yes — most of our clients are foreign suppliers, investors or holding entities. We bridge the gap between French law and your home jurisdiction's expectations and deliver everything bilingually.

The SAS (Société par Actions Simplifiée) is the default choice for most international structures: flexible governance, single shareholder allowed, no minimum capital, and works cleanly with foreign holding entities. We assess SARL, SA, SCI on the merits when the situation calls for it.

Yes — communications with a French avocat are protected by the secret professionnel (Article 66-5 of the Law of 31 December 1971). This protection is broader than the common-law attorney-client privilege and applies to written and oral exchanges.

We work on fixed fees for clearly scoped engagements (incorporation, contract drafting, audits) and on monthly retainers for ongoing advisory. Hourly billing is the exception, not the default. You always know the cost before work starts.

Typical timeline is 2–3 weeks from KYC kick-off to RCS registration, assuming standard documentation. Holding-company structures, foreign-shareholder identification or in-kind contributions can extend this — we flag the gating items at the first meeting.

Absolutely. We routinely coordinate with your in-house counsel, expert-comptable or notaire — pragmatic collaboration is the norm, not the exception. We send them everything they need to do their part without duplicating work.
