Under Article R.421-23 of the French Urban Planning Code, keeping a caravan on private land for more than three months per year outside campsites and residential leisure parks requires a prior declaration. The three-month period is calculated by adding up all periods of use, consecutive or not. If the notice is ignored, the mayor can order removal with a penalty of €500 per day of delay, capped at €25,000. A mobile home is not granted the same tolerance and may only be installed in a residential leisure park, holiday village, or campsite.
