non-visa citizens) who stay longer than three months are officially supposed to apply for a carte de sejour , for which you'll have to show proof of income at least equal to the minimum wage (at least 6700F/?1025 per month). However, EU passports are rarely stamped, so there is no evidence of how long you've been in the country. If your passport does get stamped, you can cross the border - to Belgium or Germany, for example - and re-enter for another ninety days legitimately.
