Popular Gifts to Send to France
France is the homeland of Champagne, so a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, Pommery or Dom Pérignon always feels right. Browse our Champagne gifts or our Champagne and chocolate gifts. For wine lovers, choose a wine gift basket. Belgian chocolate is a fine match for French taste: try Neuhaus or Godiva. Our luxury VIP gifts suit special occasions.

The French holiday season runs from Christmas to Epiphany on 6 January, when families share the galette des rois. Many people also give New Year's gifts, called étrennes. Send Christmas gifts and New Year's gifts to friends and colleagues across France.
Mother's Day (Fête des Mères) falls on the last Sunday of May, or the first Sunday of June when it clashes with Pentecost. Check the date before ordering your Mother's Day gift. For love and family news, we deliver Valentine's Day gifts, romantic gifts and wedding gifts.

Sending Gifts to France from the US, the UK or Elsewhere
Sending a parcel to France from outside the EU means customs forms and possible charges for the recipient. Order online with us instead and pay in your own currency. We ship from neighbouring Belgium, within the EU, so the gift arrives in 2 business days with no surprise costs.
We Deliver Everywhere in France
We deliver to Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Toulouse, Nice, Nantes, Strasbourg, Montpellier, Bordeaux, Lille, Rennes, Reims and villages all over France. Add the recipient's phone number to your order. We do not deliver to P.O. boxes. A signature is usually needed, so a business address is a good option; at companies we deliver to reception.
