Article R713-12 of the French Commercial code

Candidates for a territorial chamber of commerce and industry who have received at least 5% of the votes cast in that election may obtain reimbursement of their campaign expenses from the territorial chamber of commerce and industry.

In the event of a grouping of candidates, all the candidates in the grouping are deemed to have obtained 5% of the votes cast once at least one of them has achieved this percentage.

An order of the minister responsible for overseeing the chambers of commerce and industry defines the campaign expenses and sets the number and characteristics of the documents eligible for reimbursement as well as the conditions thereof.
