Article L134-2 of the French Tourism Code

When the competence to promote tourism, including the creation of tourist offices, is transferred to communities of communes and conurbation communities, the tourist offices of tourist communes and classified tourist resorts are transformed into information offices of the inter-communal tourist office, except when they become the headquarters of this office. However, the deliberative body of the public establishment for inter-municipal cooperation with its own tax authority may decide, no later than three months before the transfer of responsibility comes into effect, to maintain separate tourist offices for classified tourist resorts, by defining the arrangements for pooling the means and resources of the inter-municipal tourist offices existing on its territory.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L134-2

A l’occasion du transfert de la compétence en matière de promotion du tourisme, dont la création d’offices de tourisme, aux communautés de communes et aux communautés d’agglomération, les offices de tourisme des communes touristiques et des stations classées de tourisme sont transformés en bureaux d’information de l’office de tourisme intercommunal, sauf lorsqu’ils deviennent le siège de cet office. L’organe délibérant de l’établissement public de coopération intercommunale à fiscalité propre peut cependant décider, au plus tard trois mois avant l’entrée en vigueur du transfert de la compétence, de maintenir des offices de tourisme distincts pour des stations classées de tourisme, en définissant les modalités de mutualisation des moyens et des ressources des offices de tourisme intercommunaux existant sur son territoire.
