The 2016 Trophée de France was the fourth of six events in the 2016–17 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating, a series of senior-level invitational competitions. It took place November 11–13, 2016 in Paris, France. Medals were awarded in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing. Skaters also earned points toward qualifying for the 2016–17 Grand Prix Final.
The competition, known as the Trophée Éric Bompard since 2004, lost its title sponsor in the summer of 2016 due to a lack of communication from the French Federation of Ice Sports.
The ISU published the preliminary assignments on June 30, 2016.
The French organisers decided not to replace Mendoza/Kovalev despite the ISU's rules stating that it is "mandatory" to invite another pair if one withdraws more than 14 days before the event. The pairs competition ended up with only six entries after a further withdrawal (Esbrat/Novoselov).
