How to buy Sanofi shares

You can become a Sanofi shareholder by buying just one of our shares. Once you are a shareholder, you will enjoy a special relationship with us: by investing in our shares, you register a vote of confidence in our strategy, our business and our future. Sanofi shares are listed on the Euronext Paris as "ordinary shares" and are also available on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (Nasdaq) in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADS). There are different ways in which you can buy those shares.

First-time purchase of ordinary shares

Contact your financial intermediary, if you want to record your shares as “bearer” or “administered registered” shares. You will have to open a securities account to place stock market orders.

Contact Uptevia, if you want to record your shares as “fully registered shares”.
