Cancellation Policy
As the Schneider Electric Paris Marathon does not refund or defer guaranteed entries, our policy is as follows:
There is no deferral option, however, you may cancel your package for a credit, but only if we are able to resell your entry package and only if it’s prior to registration closing.
If we can resell your package, the following fees will apply:
15% of your payment amounts if cancelling 120 or more days prior to registration closing
25% of your payment amounts if cancelling between 7 and 119 days prior to registration closing
50% of your payment amounts if cancelling 6 days or less prior to registration closing.
100% of your deposit and payment amounts if cancelling after registration closes or at any time if we’re unable to resell your package.
The difference between what you paid and the fee listed above will be held as a credit for you for 24 months from the time you made your last payment for this particular package. Credits may only be used for events listed on our website.
Registration is expected to close in March of 2026.
