What's available

Netflix France gives you access to a solid library with strong European and French-language content alongside major Hollywood titles. You'll find popular series like Lupin, Squid Game, Stranger Things, Wednesday, and The Crown. Films like The Irishman, Bird Box, and Extraction are available, along with French originals such as Marseille and Family Business. Anime fans can access Attack on Titan and Demon Slayer in the French library as well.

What you're missing

Compared to the US library, Netflix France has a noticeably smaller catalogue. Several titles you won't find include:

  • The Office (US version)
  • Parks and Recreation
  • Suits
  • Arrested Development
  • The West Wing
  • Schitt's Creek
  • Various stand-up specials and documentary series exclusive to the US region

Licensing agreements mean these titles either aren't available or rotate out of the French library more quickly than in the US.

How to access other regions

A VPN lets you change your apparent location so Netflix serves you a different regional library. Connect to a VPN server in the country whose library you want — for the US catalogue, select a US server. Netflix will then treat you as a US-based subscriber and unlock that content.

We recommend NordVPN as your first choice. It reliably bypasses Netflix's VPN detection, offers fast servers in the US, UK, Canada, and Japan, and is straightforward to set up on any device. Simply install the app, choose a US server, and reload Netflix.

Pricing

Netflix in France currently offers three plans:

  • Standard with ads: €5.99/month
  • Standard: €13.49/month
  • Premium: €19.99/month

Prices are in euros and may change. The Premium plan includes 4K streaming and supports up to four simultaneous screens.

Our recommendation

Netflix France is a decent starting point, especially if you enjoy French-language originals and European content. However, if you want the full experience — including titles like The Office, Parks and Recreation, and hundreds of additional films — connecting through NordVPN to a US server is the simplest and most effective solution. Pick the Standard plan at minimum, pair it with NordVPN, and you'll have access to one of the largest streaming libraries available anywhere.
