Monaco Residency: the Carte de Séjour

If you stay in Monaco for over three months you will you need a carte de sejour residency permit. Non-EEA citizens will need a long-stay visa before making application for residency.

Any foreign national who wishes to stay in Monaco for a period in excess of three months or take up residency must apply for a residency permit, a Carte de Séjour

The process differs for nationals of the European Economic Area/EEA (European Union countries plus Norway and Iceland) and nationals of countries other than those making up the EEA.

Note: the process differs for non-EU nationals who have a French residency permit.
