On the face of it it's bonkers because millions here can and do survive on less. Brit retirees will have a guaranteed income and healthcare paid for by the UK so hardly a burden on the French state. However, if you dig a bit deeper you'll see that these income limits are guides only and not set in stone so it's likely applicants for full residency status will not need such a high income. Not for new arrivals. The days of the S1 died on the day Brexit came into force. Only those already legally resident in an EU country and in receipt of an S1 already would have that continued (and I think even that might be reviewed in the future under the terms of the agreements.) New arrivals can I believe sign onto the French system after 3 months residency here but they then become a call on the French state's resources. This suggests that you can still get an S1 after Brexit - www.frenchentree.com/living-in-france/retiring/can-i-get-an-s1-form-after-brexit/

It will all depend on the agrement between governments , not on a year old article in a Brit paper in France. I would suggest that anyone wanting to move to France should get their info from the French Gov?

It also covers people who were resident in an EU country and will or would be entitled to an S1 when they retire. Ie: people who have not yet reached retirement age but have not worked in France.
