### Simplify Your French Association Registration with Paperform

Starting a French association under the **Loi 1901** involves navigating complex administrative requirements, from drafting statutes to declaring officers and submitting documentation to your local prefecture. This **French Association Registration Form** template streamlines the entire process, helping you collect all necessary information in one organized, professional submission.

Whether you're founding a sports club, cultural organization, charitable association, or community group in France, this template guides you through every required field—from basic association details and registered office address to comprehensive officer declarations and statute uploads. The form is structured to match prefecture expectations, ensuring you gather everything needed for a smooth declaration process.

#### Built for French nonprofits and association founders

This template is designed specifically for:

 - **Association founders and presidents** establishing new Loi 1901 organizations
 - **Legal professionals and notaries** assisting clients with association creation
 - **Community organizers** formalizing clubs, cultural groups, or advocacy organizations
 - **Administrative staff** managing association compliance and prefecture submissions

#### What makes this template work for French associations

Paperform's flexible form builder lets you collect complex legal documentation while maintaining a clear, accessible experience for your founding members. The form captures all mandatory declaration elements—association name, object (purpose), registered office, officers with their full civil status, and supporting documents—structured exactly as required for **déclaration en préfecture** and publication in the Journal Officiel.

With conditional logic, the form adapts based on your responses, ensuring you provide the right information for your specific association type and departmental requirements. File upload fields make it simple to attach required documents like statutes, meeting minutes, and identity proofs, keeping everything organized in one submission.

Once submitted, you can use **[Stepper](https://stepper.io)** to automate follow-up workflows—sending confirmation emails, creating task lists for prefecture submission, updating your internal tracking systems, or triggering reminders for annual declaration updates. For associations that will later need officer signatures on founding documents, **[Papersign](https://papersign.com)** lets you convert submissions into legally binding eSignature requests, keeping your compliance trail clean and accessible.

#### Purpose-built for French legal compliance

This template reflects the specific administrative requirements of French association law, including fields for SIRET registration (once obtained), officer roles mandated by statute, and the precise formatting needed for prefecture acceptance. While Paperform isn't a replacement for legal counsel, it gives you a professional, organized foundation that helps ensure you're collecting the right information from the start.

Trusted by over 500,000 organizations worldwide and fully GDPR compliant, Paperform provides the security and reliability French associations need for handling sensitive founding documentation. The form works seamlessly on any device, so founding members can complete their declarations wherever they are.

Whether you're establishing your first association or managing registrations for multiple organizations, this template transforms a complex administrative process into a straightforward digital workflow—saving time, reducing errors, and helping you focus on your association's mission rather than paperwork.
