Tunisia sets mobile ID deadline for investors

Tunisia sets mobile ID deadline for investors

This week will see Tunisian plans to make mobile IDs mandatory for investment project declarations come into force.

The Tunisia Investment Authority has announced that the use of mobile ID will become mandatory for all investment project declarations in Tunisia starting from 1 July.

The measure, it is claimed, is designed to streamline administrative procedures and improve the efficiency of investment processes. Its also part of broader efforts to digitise public services and reduce administrative barriers for businesses. In addition it aims to enhance the security and reliability of digital transactions.

Investors seeking to register or declare investment projects will need to obtain a digital identity through the agency’s mobile ID platform before accessing investment-related services. Using this system they will be able to authenticate themselves electronically when accessing government services and completing official procedures online.

The initiative also complements the government’s broader efforts to expand e-government services and create a more attractive investment environment. By digitising investment procedures, Tunisia aims to improve transparency, reduce processing times and facilitate easier access to government services for local and foreign investors.

How close is widespread compliance? It’s not clear. According to website TechAfrica News, as the implementation deadline approaches, investors are being urged to complete their mobile ID registration to ensure uninterrupted access to investment declaration services and other digital administrative platforms.
