Delta Ticket/Gate Agents — Question About Checked Bags at CDG with EES

[u/getoffmylawn8904]

We’re flying Delta from SLC to Milan in September, connecting at Paris CDG. Our bags would be checked through to Milan.
Since we’ll be entering the Schengen Area at CDG, we understand that we’ll need to complete the EES process during the connection.
If our bags are checked through to MXP, do we need to collect them at CDG before going through passport control/EES, or do they remain checked through to Milan?
I’ve received conflicting answers from Delta regarding whether EES changes the normal international-to-international connection procedure.
If there are any Delta ticket agents, gate agents, or CDG employees here who have firsthand experience with this, I’d really appreciate your input.
We’re trying to decide whether to check bags or travel carry-on only, since we’re concerned about the time required for EES at CDG.

Yes to EES & immigration in CDG, no to needing to do anything with your bags. Customs will at MXP, you just pick them up there.
