Tunisia: electronic visa soon to be announced?

First announced in 2017, the Maghreb country's electronic visa is now in the pipeline, if the latest Tunisian government meetings are to be believed.

Whereas Morocco has already launched its online approachand Algeria also has it in the pipelineTunisia could not remain indifferent to the tourist and economic advantages of e-Visa.

Last week's Council of Ministers meeting at the Kasbah dealt with two main subjects: the digitization of residence permits and - above all - the practical implementation of the electronic visa. No details (date, eligible nationalities, etc.) have been leaked. So we won't know whether this will concern only those nationalities currently requiring a visa (part of Africa, South America and Asia), or whether it will take the form of a travel authorization for all travelers.

This is a far cry from the 2017/2018 deadline announced at the time by the Minister of Tourism and Handicrafts, Selma Elloumi Rekik.

Restoring tourism in Tunisia after the COVID-19 pandemic has been a gradual and cautious process. The Tunisian government has been working to reinforce health and safety measures to ensure the protection of tourists and workers in the tourism sector. There have been no health restrictions since December 2022..

Efforts have been made to promote Tunisia as a safe and attractive tourist destination. Marketing campaigns have been launched to attract tourists and highlight Tunisia's tourist attractions, most recently in December 2021 with "Tounes Lik". Discounts on flights and accommodation as well as special offers on sightseeing tours were also offered to attract visitors.
