Visual Studio Community 2015 is free. but you will get 30 day trial period, after expiration you just need to login with your Microsoft account and you will get a full version of visual studio
according to MSDN FAQ
Community Edition is telling me my trial has expired. Do I have to pay for Community edition?
-No, Community edition is free to use. We use the same infrastructure that allows you to unlock VS w/ an online subscription to manage the requirement of signing into Community edition so some of our strings overlap cross these scenarios. Trial here means the period you can use the community edition before you must sign in to fully unlock the IDE

Basically, you pay for it and Microsoft sorts it all out: How to: Upgrade from a Trial Edition of Visual Studio[^]

Any other way (other than an uninstal and installation of the Community Edition assuming you qualify for that) would be in breach of copyright, and thus illegal.
