Do I need an INPI smart card to file patent applications online with the French patent office?

No, you can use your EPO smart card in combination with cryptovision.
All smart cards need to be registered before they can be used for filing documents with INPI. Existing INPI smart cards that require Gemalto Classic Client can continue to be used until they expire. Please contact INPI Direct for any further assistance.
