last time I bought some Foma sheet film the box had only two parts.
 
Comes packaged in a "U" shaped card stock protector, inside a heavy black plastic envelope, inside a two part box.
 
I opened a new box of Foma 400 yesterday, it is packaged the same as usual, a two part box. The best part about the Foma boxes, is their length. Foma 4x5" film boxes are longer in length, making it easier to pull out the plastic bag containing the film when you have a full box.

I find Ilford films are sometimes so tight a fit, it can be difficult to put everything back in if you only take 2 sheets out from a new box. Whereas with Foma, easy peasy.

Thank you, A Foma rep told me a couple of hours ago that it comes in a two-part box but has a resealable bag. Is this true?
 
Well, the resealable bag is just a black plastic bag that is far longer than the film. You fold the plastic bag over, and in my case, I put the fold underneath the film when I place the film back in the box, then I put the top on and hold it closed with an elastic band, or rubber band.

Awesome. Thank you. I'm about to order a box.
