Working in the Usa
For a short term stay :
You can enter the United States for less than three months, as a tourist, without a visa. A valid passport is sufficient. But in these conditions it is strictly forbidden to look for work.

If by any chance you should be offered a job, one way to get around the law,is to work for an employer based in France and get your salary paid in France. But, be careful : 40,000 French people reside clandestinely in the USA and only 3000 visas are given every year. The police are very strict with offenders.

Entry formalities :
You can enter the United States with a passport.
If you are employed in a French or an international company you don't have to worry about the formalities, usually the administrative services deal with the formalities linked to the registration of the entire expatriate staff, unless you are the only representative of your company in the country (a salesman, or in charge of a liaison bureau, etc.), in this case you have to deal with all the formalities yourself.

Formalities to be completed

The waiting period is long, several months, maybe even several years. But the most difficult thing is to find an employer.
You could get a green card through the lottery, everyone can participate if the conditions are respected. You have to have passed your baccalaureat or have had a professional activity for at least 2 years; you must be born in a country which has the right to participate in the lottery (France is authorized). Only one participation per person.

Health & Medecine
Vaccinations :
No vaccination is obligatory, but the usual vaccines (tetanos, polio and typhoid) are recommended. Hepatitis B is advisable if the stay is a long one.

Observations
TAX CLEARANCE : Tax clearance can take between 2 and 24 hours; clearance brokers are connected by computer to the customs (ABI Automated Broker Interface). 
To speed up the tax clearance it is possible to pre-file before the merchandise arrives.
The merchandise can travel in bond from the entry point in the USA to the final destination in the USA. The merchandise is stocked in a bonded warehouse or in a container on the quay.
