The French issues of the New Hebrides were produced under the unique Anglo-French Condominium, where France and Britain administered the same territory simultaneously while issuing separate stamps. French New Hebrides stamps reflect classic French colonial style paired with vivid South Pacific imagery.

These issues commonly feature Marianne or allegorical female figures, indigenous Melanesian people, sailing canoes, village scenes, and tropical flora and fauna. Inscriptions are in French, with denominations expressed in francs, clearly distinguishing them from the British issues of the same islands.

For collectors, French New Hebrides stamps are especially attractive for their elegant engraving, colorful designs, and their role in one of the most fascinating and unusual administrative arrangements in colonial philately.
