For this reason. during a period from around 1976 through 1991, the French Company manufactured bags under a special license from Louis Vuitton
From 1995 to mid-2012, Louis Vuitton bags made in the US were stamped with “LOUIS VUITTON PARIS made in U.S.A.”. When authenticating Louis Vuitton, matching the factory code letters of the date code with the country listed on the “made in” stamp is essential.
