French fixed-term contract (CDD) reclassification
French CDD-to-CDI reclassification: build the evidence first
Reclassification of a French fixed-term contract into a permanent contract depends on specific rules and a complete record, not an online score. Line up each contract, amendment, stated reason, delivery date, renewal, role and period actually worked. Then connect each legal question to the document that proves it or to missing evidence. Official French guidance describes several reclassification cases and the labour-court route. This tool builds the chronology; it does not decide that a CDD must become a CDI.

Facts and evidence ledger
Each row links one question to the evidence to keep and the next verification.
| Question to classify | Direct answer | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Did I receive a written, signed CDD? | Existence, content and delivery date must be checked contract by contract. | Verify from source |
| Does the CDD state a precise reason? | Record the exact stated reason without replacing it with your interpretation. | Verify from source |
| How should several contracts and amendments be aligned? | A document-by-document timeline reveals periods, gaps, renewals and role changes. | Verify from source |
| Can I prove when the contract was delivered? | Keep delivery proof or mark it missing; the printed date alone does not prove receipt. | Verify from source |
| Did the same role continue between contracts? | Document tasks and periods through neutral sources without drawing a legal conclusion. | Verify from source |
| Which documents show the work actually performed? | Schedules, payslips and work records may describe facts when lawfully obtained. | Verify from source |
