The Lycée International Xavier offers an on‑site boarding facility on the campus. Check‑in for boarders is on Sunday evening from 19:00 to 21:00, and an early Monday arrival before 08:15 is possible if parents notify the dormitory supervisor. Students depart the dormitory on Friday after 17:00, and outdoor visits are allowed only on Tuesdays between 17:00 and 18:00 with parental consent; departures outside these times require exceptional authorization from the dormitory staff. A typical day includes wake‑up at 07:15, classes from 08:25 to 16:50, mandatory evening study, dinner at the on‑site cafeteria, and study time until 22:00 with restricted access to other rooms after hours.
Uniforms must be purchased through the Elite store, which staff will bring to LIX for on‑site sales before the school year starts in September and a few times during the year; sale dates will be announced by school emails. Ordering may take about a month to fulfill, so parents are advised to order in advance. For secondary students, a blazer is required; sportswear and pricing are listed, and the old uniform remains valid—no time limit on using the previous uniform.
The school's cafeteria is operated by J&J Catering Co., Ltd. for the 2024–2025 school year, and cafeteria fees are paid to the service provider; the school does not profit from the cafeteria. Monthly cafeteria menus are published (e.g., 2025 menus listed on the site), indicating on‑site meals available to students.
The school is an establishment of the Mission Laïque Française (MLF) and is part of the AEFE network of French schools abroad. It is affiliated with MLF and AEFE, and is listed among the Daniélou‑Education network of schools, including Lycée International Xavier Seoul as part of that group.
