Article 306 of the French Code of civil procedure

The entry of forgery shall be made by deed delivered to the court registry by the party or his agent with a special power of attorney.

The deed, drawn up in duplicate, must, on pain of inadmissibility, set out precisely the grounds on which the party relies to establish the forgery.

One of the copies is immediately placed in the case file and the other, dated and stamped by the Registrar, is returned to the party with a view to denouncing the registration to the defendant.

The denunciation must be made by notification between lawyers or service on the opposing party within one month of the registration.

Article 306

L’inscription de faux est formée par acte remis au greffe par la partie ou son mandataire muni d’un pouvoir spécial.

L’acte, établi en double exemplaire, doit, à peine d’irrecevabilité, articuler avec précision les moyens que la partie invoque pour établir le faux.

L’un des exemplaires est immédiatement versé au dossier de l’affaire et l’autre, daté et visé par le greffier, est restitué à la partie en vue de la dénonciation de l’inscription au défendeur.

La dénonciation doit être faite par notification entre avocats ou signification à la partie adverse dans le mois de l’inscription.
