Article 311-60 of the French Cinema and Moving Image Code

Investment for production of sums entered in the automatic audiovisual production account is subject to the issue of a prior authorisation and a final authorisation.
The prior authorisation is issued before the work is completed. It sets out the terms and conditions for payment of the sums invested.
The final authorisation is issued once the work has been completed. This authorisation constitutes the decision to definitively allocate the sums invested. It establishes, where applicable, eligibility for the bonuses or increases provided for in articles 311-44,311-49 and 311-51.

L’investissement pour la production des sommes inscrites sur le compte automatique production audiovisuelle est subordonné à la délivrance d’une autorisation préalable et d’une autorisation définitive.
L’autorisation préalable est délivrée avant achèvement de l’œuvre. Elle prévoit les modalités de versement des sommes investies.
L’autorisation définitive est délivrée après achèvement de l’œuvre. Cette autorisation constitue la décision d’attribution à titre définitif des sommes investies.
