This paper explores the role of a minimum quality standard when the quality choice is discrete. A minimum quality standard is never a socially optimal policy under Bertrand and Cournot competition. Conversely, it is often optimal to subsidize or tax the high quality in order to implement different firms’ choices corresponding to a situation of welfare maximization.Ce article étudie le rôle d’un standard minimal de qualité quand le choix de qualité est discret. Il est montré que, dans un contexte de concurrence à la Bertrand ou à la Cournot, le standard minimal de qualité n’est pas socialement optimal. Il est souvent optimal de subventionner ou de taxer le produit de qualité haute, afin de conduire les firmes à différents choix de qualité
