Postal Letter

What is the telephone number for France's postal customs office?

A package was shipped from Maine, USA to me in Paris, France roughly two months ago. It has over $400 worth of medication in it and, more importantly, my journal. US customs is being contacted but I need to contact France's customs. I am unable to find a number online. I have tried going to the post office and have not been met with corporation. They have told me that they can't even check their system to see if it has arrived in the country and I simply have not been notified. Any help is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately my mother mailed it to me from the states and didn't get insurance or a tracking number. The US customs has already been contacted and they said that it was not stopped on their end but unfortunately we can't track it any further. I have no idea what I can do now. The post office won't help and I can't find contact info.....

1. France doesn't appear to post telephone numbers on line (there is only an on-line contact for on their website) ... although there may be a listing in the Paris phone directory (something like the Blue Pages in Canada (and US?)). There is a contact at the Washington Embassy office ... maybe someone in the US could contact there? That said, are you sure it's a customs issue? It may be lost in transit. I assume given the value you had it shipped with insurance and/or tracking. Isn't it the shipper's responsibility?
