Are you conducting import and re-export procedures in France? French customs provides a unique and simplified procedure for the accredited travelers coming from outside the EU.
A form dedicated to accredited travelers by the Paris 2024 Olympic Organizing Committee coming from outside the EU (JO-JP 2024 - Démarches simplifiées)
As part of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, for the purpose of arrivals in France and departures from France, French customs have created a form dedicated to travelers accredited by the Paris 2024 Olympic Organizing Committee (COJOP). Accredited individuals from outside the EU can declare their goods, digitally and in advance, exempt from duties and taxes under temporary admission and/or imported with duties and VAT relief.
