He will hope to recover fully in time for his debut appearance at the ATP World Tour Finals, which begins in London on November 13.
"Gael Monfils cannot take part in the Paris Masters next week due to a rib injury," the 30-year-old Frenchman's agent Nicolas Lamperin said.
A semi-finalist at the US Open, Monfils sealed qualification for his first season-ending tournament on Thursday when rival Dominic Thiem was defeated at the Erst Bank Open in Vienna.
Spain's Marcel Granollers also pulled out of Paris on Friday while Ukraine's Illya Marchenko and Argentina's Guido Pella were both added to the main draw.
