All streaming platforms available in France
France has one of the richest streaming markets in Europe. Here are the major platforms:
Why France streaming differs from the UK and US
France has strict audiovisual regulations (chronologie des médias) that require films to be available on pay services like Canal+ before they can appear on SVoD platforms like Netflix. This means the French streaming catalogue is structured very differently from the UK or US — some films arrive on Netflix France much later, while Canal+ often has titles first.
French originals like Lupin, Marianne, Baron Noir, and Le Bureau des Légendes are globally popular but may only be available on specific platforms in France versus abroad. Our search tool checks availability in France in real time.
Watching French streaming from outside France
If you're outside France and want to access French streaming services like Canal+, France.tv, or TF1+, you'll need a French IP address. Many people use a VPN to access French content from abroad — or to access other countries' libraries while in France.
