Article 386 of the French Customs Code

If the effects and papers of accountants are sealed, the revenue and other registers for the current year must not be sealed. The said registers are simply stopped and initialled by the judge, who hands them over to the acting revenue officer, who remains guarantor of them as the depositary of justice, and mention of this is made in the sealing report.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 386

Dans le cas d’apposition de scellés sur les effets et papiers des comptables, les registres de recettes et autres de l’année courante ne doivent pas être renfermés sous les scellés. Lesdits registres sont seulement arrêtés et paraphés par le juge, qui les remet à l’agent chargé de la recette par intérim, lequel en demeure garant comme dépositaire de justice, et il en est fait mention dans le procès-verbal d’apposition des scellés.
