Article 684 of the French Civil Code

If the enclave results from the division of land as a result of a sale, exchange, partition or any other contract, passage may only be requested over the land which was the subject of these acts.

However, in the event that a sufficient passage cannot be established on the divided land, article 682 would apply.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 684

Si l’enclave résulte de la division d’un fonds par suite d’une vente, d’un échange, d’un partage ou de tout autre contrat, le passage ne peut être demandé que sur les terrains qui ont fait l’objet de ces actes.

Toutefois, dans le cas où un passage suffisant ne pourrait être établi sur les fonds divisés, l’article 682 serait applicable.
