Bardot is accused making controversial comments concerning the religion of Islam. The 73-year-old former screen siren faces a possible two-month suspended prison sentence and a fine of £11,750 if she is found guilty.
She has faced similar charges of inciting racial hate on four prior occasions. The latest charges came about after the star publicly published a letter she sent to French president Nicolas Sarkozy last year, lambasting the Muslim religious festival of Eid al-Adha - due to its traditions of slaughtering a sheep.
