ATA Carnet Specifics:
As advised by the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Holders bringing jewelry samples and /or precious stones to France are strongly advised to have blue transits included in their ATA Carnet. French customs inspectors specially trained to evaluate jewelry and/or loose stones are typically not available at airports.

The offices are presently located at:
