Article R123-125 of the French Commercial code

Unless the last paragraph of article R. 123-128, when the Registrar is informed that a registered person has ceased his activity at the declared address, he shall remind him of his reporting obligations by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, sent to the same address. If the letter is returned with a statement that the person is no longer at the address indicated, the Registrar shall note the cessation of activity on the register.

When the registrar is informed, pursuant to 1° of Article R. 123-168, that the person domiciled has not picked up his mail for three months, he will send a letter to the home address of the person domiciled or of his legal representative and, where applicable, to the address of the registered office or establishment, stating that, in the absence of any news from him, a note will be made in the register that he has ceased trading.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article R123-125

Sauf en cas d’application du dernier alinéa de l’article R. 123-128, lorsque le greffier est informé qu’une personne immatriculée aurait cessé son activité à l’adresse déclarée, il lui rappelle par lettre recommandée avec demande d’avis de réception, transmise à cette même adresse, ses obligations déclaratives. Si la lettre est retournée avec une mention précisant que la personne ne se trouve plus à l’adresse indiquée, le greffier porte la mention de la cessation d’activité sur le registre.

Lorsque le greffier est informé, en application du 1° de l’article R. 123-168, que la personne domiciliée n’a pas pris connaissance de son courrier depuis trois mois, il envoie au domicile de celle-ci ou de son responsable légal et, le cas échéant, à l’adresse du siège ou de l’établissement une lettre indiquant que, sans nouvelle de sa part, il sera porté mention de sa cessation d’activité sur le registre.
