Married, civil partnership, or just living together - rules for renting a property in France
Briefly

In France, marital status directly impacts rental agreements and responsibilities. Married couples share joint responsibility for rent payments and must provide a joint notice if they move out. In cases of divorce, the spouse wishing to leave must inform the landlord, but both remain liable for payments until the divorce is officially noted. If leaving due to domestic violence, a shorter notice period applies, provided specific legal documents are presented to the landlord, shifting sole responsibility to the remaining spouse thereafter.
In France, the rules on renting property greatly depend on your marital status. Couples, whether married or pacsé, share responsibilities concerning the rent.
For married couples, both parties are responsible for making sure the rent is paid on time, as well as for sending notice to the landlord if moving out.
