Welcome to the forum.


Can you speak French as this would be necessary to work in tourism.

I doubt that you can work on a tourist visa.

Well, what about any suggestions to find a job sponsoring once in France ?

SimCityAT

@Bartglo you have to apply for a work visa in your home country before you arrive in France.

As I said before you can not work on a tourist visa.

Expat.com is neither a job agency so can't find you employment you have to do that yourself.

There is no way!


When your tourist visa expires, you will have to leave France.


In order to work in France, you have from Morocco to find an employer in France, who will have to prove to the authorities that he cannot find anyone for said job in France and in the European Union...


This is the rule anywhere.

Hello!


Unfortunately this will not be possible.


In France, a lot of people with sociology and touristic training are unemployed because too many of them for the number of jobs.


To work in the touristic business in France it is also mandator to speak several languages


However, in order to be allowed to work in France, you have (from your country) to find an employer in France who will have to prove that nobody suitable can be found not only in France but also in the whole European Union.


You may not just arrive on a tourist visa and look for a job once in France. This is illegal. The risks are very high both for you and for employer.


A tourist visa is to visit country and when it expires, the foreigner has to leave....
