In this letter we calculate the Inverse Cotton-Mouton Effect (ICME) for thevacuum following the predictions of Quantum ElectroDynamics. We compare thevalue of this effect for the vacuum with the one expected for atomic systems.We finally show that ICME could be measured for the first time for noble gasesusing state-of-the-art laser systems and for the quantum vacuum withnear-future laser facilities like ELI and HiPER, providing in particular a testof the nonlinear behaviour of quantum vacuum at intensities below the Schwingerlimit of 4.5x10^33 W/m^2.
