Dual EU American citizen.

Welcome, as an EU citizen, it's pretty straightforward for you, as you have the freedom of movement. When you fly, use your German passport as you won't have to worry about the EES.

Yes, I do that. I am wondering more about applying for the health insurance in France.

Look up, Public health insurance (PUMA)

If you have the German citizenship, no problem to move to France. You can also go in any of the European countries. Wife and I have a website: bonjourneverand.com. Best of luck!

Hi

You are not obliged, as a German citizen to hold a residency card, but you do have the right to request one. It is wise advice to register at your local mairie and see whether they will give you a Certificat de Résidence or Domicile (some won't/don't, unfortunately: cue gallic shrug). But if you can get one, this will put a documented pin in your arrival date. You can apply to join PUMa, the French state healthcare system, once you have been a resident for three months. I'll drop you a line with my contact details, if you'd like more info.

Above all, happy packing and moving! Nicole Hammond
