Verified 21 mars 2025 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
Each roommate must have a room with an area of at least 9 m2 and of a volume of not less than 20 m3 (common parts not taken into account).
The decent housing is evaluated by taking into account all the elements, equipment and rooms of the dwelling (and not just the room of which the tenant has private use).
