The B series includes thematic files. Beside the regular correspondence with the French Foreign Office, the French Embassy, the French local authorities, or the French and foreign Consulates and vice-consulates, the series includes many files dealing with the Ottoman administration about economic issues (bank, post and customs offices, shipping delivery service) and about military and legal issues.
Despite a few missing files, records include many documents dealing with the political context in Palestine and the Ottoman and Muslim issues. There are also notes from Beirut and Jerusalem intelligence services.
