What to know before exhibiting or selling in France
Dates are not published yet. The fact sheet on this page shows no date. Do not book travel, transport or stand staff until the organiser confirms them on the official website.
For a company exporting from Spain, France is part of the same customs union. Goods in free circulation move between Spain and France without customs duties. VAT and excise rules still apply to sales and to goods that stay in France after the fair. The Spanish tax authority (AEAT) explains the intra-EU treatment.
Machinery sold in the EU must meet EU product rules. That means CE marking, a declaration of conformity and technical documentation under the machinery legislation in force. Check the current text on EUR-Lex before showing or selling equipment, because requirements depend on the product type.
The import table on this page measures farm products, not machinery. It lists agricultural and food chapters such as fruit and nuts (chapter 08, USD 8,195,503,777 in 2025, UN Comtrade) and fertilizers (chapter 31). It shows how large agricultural trade is around the show. It does not measure demand for equipment, which is classified in other customs chapters.
Prepare the visit as a commercial campaign. Define which distributors of agricultural equipment and which product lines you want to meet, and arrange meetings before the fair. The exhibitor profile described by the organiser is technology, innovation, digitalisation and practical solutions for field crops, mixed farming and livestock, and European agricultural production.

Frequently asked questions
When is SIMA Paris held?
No date is published on the fact sheet at the moment. The organiser, Profield Events Group, announces dates on the official website, agrisima.com. Confirm them there before committing to a stand or travel.
Where does the fair take place?
At the Parc des Expositions de Paris-Nord in Villepinte, in the Seine-Saint-Denis department, near Paris. The venue is listed on the organiser's fact sheet.
Do I pay customs duties to bring equipment from Spain to the fair?
Not on goods in free circulation, because Spain and France belong to the same EU customs union. VAT and any excise rules still apply to sales, and the treatment of goods that remain in France is set by tax rules, which the AEAT explains.
Does my machinery need CE marking to be shown or sold in France?
Machinery placed on the EU market must comply with the EU machinery legislation, which includes CE marking and a declaration of conformity. The exact requirements depend on the type of machine. Check the current text on EUR-Lex or ask your notified body.
Does the import table on this page show demand for agricultural machinery?
No. The table covers agricultural and food chapters of the customs nomenclature, such as fruit, vegetables, cereals and fertilizers. Machinery falls under other chapters, so use the table as sector context and not as a measure of equipment demand.
