Article R7123-10 of the French Labour Code

The licence application is sent to the prefect mentioned in article R. * 7123-9, by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt.

It shall specify the place chosen as the agency’s registered office. It is accompanied by the documents mentioned, depending on the case, in article R. 7123-10-1 or article R. 7123-10-2.

Article R7123-10

La demande de licence est adressée au préfet mentionné à l’article R. * 7123-9, par lettre recommandée avec demande d’avis de réception.


Elle précise le lieu choisi comme siège de l’agence. Elle est accompagnée des documents mentionnés, suivant les cas, à l’article R. 7123-10-1 ou à l’article R. 7123-10-2.


Lorsque la demande de licence est incomplète, le préfet indique au demandeur les documents manquants et fixe un délai pour la réception de ces pièces.


Le silence gardé pendant plus de deux mois sur une demande de licence assortie d’un dossier complet vaut acceptation.
