Article R124-3 of the French Insurance Code

When the cover taken out by a natural person for their professional activity is the last cover provided before they ceased their professional activity or died, the period provided for in the fourth and fifth paragraphs of article L. 124-5 may not be less than ten years.

In the event of resumption of the same activity, this period is reduced to the period between the date of expiry or cancellation of the cover and the date of resumption of activity, without this period being less than five years or the period fixed contractually.
