Hi there
I'll be living in paris for half a year and I'm wondering if I should need a rental contract for my appartment? I'm asking since I'we heard that I might not be able to open a bank account or getting a cellphone subscription if I don't have a rental contract.
regards

Indeed, you'll need a "justificatif de domicile" or rent receipt to open a bank account. For your cell phone, you can find prepaid plans everywhere. Pospaidplans usually imply a 12 months contract. Have fun in Paris!

You can actually buy a prepaid straight out of a vending machine at the airport. Prepaids may not be the cheapest option, but they're widely available.

If you want you can just make one up, they have no way to track if it is real or not.
