From Wikipedia

The green ticket roundup (French: rafle du billet vert ), also known as the green card roundup, took place on 14 May 1941 during the Nazi occupation of France. The mass arrest started a day after French Police delivered a green card (billet vert) to 6,694 foreign Jews living in Paris, instructing them to report for a "status check" (examen de situation, lit. 'examination of situation'). Over half reported as instructed, most of them Polish and Czech. They were arrested and deported to one of two transit camps in France. Most of them were interned for a year before getting deported to Auschwitz and murdered. The "green ticket roundup" was the first mass arrest of Jews by the Vichy regime during World War II; it was followed just over a year later by the Vel' d'Hiv roundup when over 13,000 Jews were deported and murdered.
