"From more strikes to new help buying a car and installing a heat pump, plus tax deadlines, school holidays and an important date for Christmas travel (yes, that's coming, too), there's a lot going on in France in October, which begins on Wednesday. Everything that changes in France in October 2025 October is the start of the sniffles, colds and flu season in France, and the seasonal vaccination campaign will open in France in mid-October. Here's what you need to know about getting vaccinated, as well as receiving a Covid booster if necessary."
"When, where and how to get the flu vaccine in France Think the south of France, think the Mediterranean, think Provence and the Côte d'Azur, and think of the property prices to match. But, head inland a short distance, and - though you lose the sea, you gain bucolic and peaceful views, the Parc national des Cèvennes, and plenty of wide, open space. Let us introduce you to France's most sparsely populated - and most affordable - département."
"Explained: France's 'quotient familial' and when do you need it When completing various admin tasks in France, especially related to childcare, you're likely to be asked for your quotient familial. Here's what this is and where to find it. What date is the heating switched on in French apartment blocks? If you live in an apartment block in France it's possible the landlord gets to decide when your heating is turned on. But what are the rules around this?"
October in France brings a range of policy and seasonal changes. Seasonal flu vaccination opens in mid-October alongside Covid booster availability. New local measures include free public transport in dozens of towns, claimed to save locals about €300 per year. Inland areas in the south offer the most affordable properties, featuring sparse population, bucolic views and the Parc national des Cèvennes. Administrative processes often require the quotient familial for childcare and other benefits. Rules govern when heating is switched on in apartment blocks, sometimes at the landlord's discretion. Other October items include strike activity, help for buying cars, heat pump installation support, tax deadlines, and school holidays.
