Guide to French Insurance

Are you looking for a reliable French insurance company and information to insure your home, your family's health, your car or beloved pets in France? No matter where you are, comprehensive coverage provides peace of mind for you and your loved ones. This is true for expats, retirees, professionals, and especially for foreigners who own a second or holiday home in France when back in their own country. Learn about our bilingual service and request your free insurance quote in English today.

English Speaking Service

Back in the early days, My-French-House.com was one of the pioneering companies to provide insurance coverage through convenient online application forms. Little did we know that we would eventually form partnerships with these same insurers two decades later, after crossing paths with Jean-Luc in 2003 when we were both expats residing in Lyon. Our team of bilingual specialists is dedicated to helping you choose the most suitable insurance package, and this article aims to walk you through the process.

Caring for Your Family

We all know how crucial it is to be covered by travel insurance when going abroad but what if you and your family plan to move to a foreign country for a new life? For instance, if you are buying a property in France, you should know that it is mandatory to have home insurance on completion date. However, the language barrier can make it difficult to navigate the process of obtaining the appropriate policy.

No Brokers Fees

Navigating the world of insurance can be complex, especially when it comes to finding the right coverage for you and your family. Even if you are fluent in French, understanding the nuances of insurance policies and contracts can be a little daunting. Working with knowledgeable English speaking professionals can make the process easier and ensure that you find the most appropriate coverage for your needs.

We are not brokers, meaning when you apply for a quote, your request is received instantly at our partner's office. And because there's no middleman, there are no admin costs or brokerage fees. If you want the highest insurance standard and the best coverage for your family or business, our bilingual experts will be delighted to assist you. We've been working with the same team since 2004.

Our French insurers typically reply in 24 hours, sometimes the same day, from Monday to Friday. Our award-winning property portal was featured on This is MONEY in the UK. See below some testimonials written by satisfied customers who enjoy using our services.

"We bought our property three years ago and are moving out to start renovation work. We have struggled to get buildings insurance quotes to date. Having received a prompt reply to our queries, we will contact you again when the car insurance is up for renewal. Thanks." - M. Parish

"I now have received my quote and cover, thank you for all your help. The advice was so helpful, the process was painless and very fast. The main thing is that I understand the policy, which is in English" - Penny

And if you are using a mobile phone with a small screen or want to submit multiple forms, we can send you the application form(s) by email (in a Microsoft Word document). Tell us which type of insurance quote you would like to receive (home and content, car, healthcare, pet ...).
