The Third Republic and the Vichy regime would successively call these places "reception camps" (), "internment camps" (), "séjour" camps (), "guarded "séjour" camps" (), "prisoner camps" (), etc. Another category was created by the Vichy regime: the "transit camps" (""camps de transit""), referring to the fact the detainees were to be deported to Germany. Such "transit camps" included Drancy, Pithiviers, etc. In particular, Pithiviers was used in 1941 for the green ticket roundup, and Drancy in 1942 for the Vel' d'Hiv Roundup, before the victims were deported.
