Antoine Dupont will have his regular partner in crime Romain Ntamack back when Ireland welcome France to Dublin next month.
Ntamack has been handed a three-week suspension for picking up a red card in France's opening Six Nations weekend win over Wales.
But the Toulouse out-half's suspension will be over in time for Les Blues' clash with Ireland on 8 March.
Ntamack, 25, picked up a yellow card for a shoulder-to-head tackle on Wales' Ben Thomas last month, which was upgraded to a red card following a review.
The disciplinary committee initially recommended a six-match ban for the Frenchman before reducing it to three matches after Ntamack accepted he committed an act of foul play, along with his exemplary disciplinary record.
Ntamack missed France's 26-25 loss to England at Twickenham last weekend and will miss their clash with Italy in Rome on 23 February.
But he will be back alongside his Toulouse teammate Dupont in Dublin, which looks likely to be Ireland's last major hurdle to winning a Grand Slam.
France are second in the Six Nations standings on six points, four points behind Ireland.
