If you look at the website for the PARAFE program in France (French automated border gates) it states that only French biometric passports work without pre-registration (
Crossing borders - Paris Aéroport).
On a recent trip to CDG, Air France was showing a video that stated that German and Belgian passports worked as well. A member of my party had a German passport, tried it in the PARAFE gate upon arrival, and it worked.
The PARAFE gates are different than the automated border gates seen at other European airports in that they don't work based on facial recognition - but, instead, they work based on fingerprints. German passports (and presumably French and Belgian passports), have encrypted fingerprint images on the chip. So presumably PARAFE could work with any European passport where the passport issuing country has shared information allowing the French authorities to access the fingerprints on the chip.
