Abstract
This report provides the French country profile of the
project The Factbook on the Illicit Trade in Tobacco
Products. In France, the illicit trade in tobacco products
is a key issue due to its high penetration in the French
tobacco market, reaching 14.7% of total consumption in
2014 (KPMG 2015). Tobacco control policies are at the
top of the French policy agenda, and a national action
plans against the ITTP was launched in 2011. Moreover,
the recent ratification of the Protocol Against Illicit Trade
in Tobacco Products (WHO FCTC), in November 2015,
demonstrates France’s commitment to tackling the illicit
trade. The growing attention of the French Customs to
tobacco smuggling is evidenced by the increasing number
of seizures.
