abroad to take away a sum greater than 1,000 francs per head
in notes of the Bank of France, or the approximate value of
this sum in notes of foreign banks. (Act of 3rd April, 1918,
and Order of the 3rd July, 1918.)

An exception is made in the case of silver to the maximum amount of 10 francs per head.

Travellers not conforming to these directions run the risk of imprisonment and a heavy fine.

The following modification of the above was advised by the Imperial Government under date of the 3rd June, 1920:

In virtue of a French law of 3rd April, 1918, the sum of money which may be taken out of France by persons leaving the country is limited to 1,000 francs. This limitation is a source of considerable inconvenience to foreign commercial travellers, who frequently recover, just prior to leaving the country, a sum of money which they were obliged to deposit on entering the country as duty on samples, with the result that the total sum in their possession exceeds 1,000 francs.

The French Customs authorities have now, however, issued instructions that foreign commercial travellers visiting France may, on leaving the country, be permitted to export freely the sums which they deposited on entering the country, even when the addition of this sum to the money they are already carrying raises the total above 1,000 francs.
