What to know before taking Viva Technology as an export step
Viva Technology is organised by Groupe Les Echos - Le Parisien and Publicis Groupe. It is held every year in Paris. The 2027 edition is scheduled for 16 to 19 June at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles.
The fair is about technology: artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, deep tech, software and digital technologies applied to other economic sectors. It fits best a company whose product or service is technological, or one that sells technology-enabled solutions to other industries.
For a company exporting from Spain, France is part of the EU single market. Goods moving between the two countries do not pay customs duties or go through an import declaration. Tax treatment, especially VAT, depends on whether the goods are sold, left in France or brought back to Spain. It is checked with the AEAT or a tax adviser before shipping.
Before booking, define what the fair has to deliver: meetings with distributors of your sector, contact with potential partners or visibility with investors. The format of participation and the conditions to exhibit or visit are set by the organiser and are consulted on its official website.
Public support for attending international fairs depends on each call. For a company based in Spain, the places to check are ICEX and the export agency of the company's region, such as ACCIÓ, Extenda or IVACE. Eligibility, deadlines and amounts change with each call and are read in the call itself.

Do I need customs paperwork to take equipment from Spain to the fair?
Not for customs duties: Spain and France are both in the EU single market, so there are no tariffs or import declarations between them. VAT is a separate matter and depends on whether the goods are sold, stay in France or return to Spain. It is confirmed with the AEAT or a tax adviser.
Is there public funding in Spain to attend the fair?
It depends on whether a call is open for this edition. ICEX and regional agencies such as ACCIÓ, Extenda or IVACE publish calls with their own eligibility rules, deadlines and amounts. Those are read in each call on the agency's website.
