French tax-free sales slip not recognized

As of June 2, 2025, any French tax-free sales slip not recognized during its scan in a PABLO kiosk cannot be validated by French customs.

Version française

In this case, no complaint to the customs office will be admissible for this reason.

If the terminal displays the following information when scanning your sales slip in French tax-free mode, this means that your tax-free operator has not complied with the issuing procedures provided for by the regulations in force.

Your voucher cannot be validated by French customs because it has not been issued regularly by your tax refund operator. In case of complaint, please contact your tax refund operator.

For any claim 

We invite you to contact your tax refund operator, whose contact details are indicated in the insert of your slip (see the blue box on the image on the right).

The customs and indirect duties administration is responsible for ensuring compliance with the tax refund procedure. It ensures the effective export of goods purchased tax-free. It does not deal with tax rebates.
