Tunisia Makes Mobile ID Mandatory for Investment Project Declarations
The move forms part of Tunisia's broader efforts to digitize public services and reduce administrative barriers for businesses
The Tunisia Investment Authority has announced that the use of Mobile ID will become mandatory for all investment project declarations in Tunisia starting from July 1, 2026, as the country advances its digital transformation agenda.
The new requirement means that investors seeking to register or declare investment projects will need to obtain a digital identity through the Mobile ID platform before accessing investment-related services. Authorities say the measure is designed to streamline administrative procedures and improve the efficiency of investment processes.
According to the agency, investors are encouraged to register for their digital identity ahead of the implementation date to avoid delays or disruptions when submitting new investment projects. The move forms part of Tunisia’s broader efforts to digitize public services and reduce administrative barriers for businesses.
Mobile ID serves as a secure digital identity solution that enables users to authenticate themselves electronically when accessing government services and completing official procedures online. The platform is expected to simplify interactions between investors and public institutions while enhancing the security and reliability of digital transactions.
The mandatory adoption of Mobile ID aligns with Tunisia’s ongoing reforms aimed at improving the business climate and modernizing investment procedures. Digitalization has become a central pillar of the country’s investment strategy, with authorities seeking to eliminate bureaucracy and make administrative services more accessible.
The initiative also complements the government’s broader efforts to expand e-government services and create a more attractive investment environment. By digitizing investment procedures, Tunisia aims to improve transparency, reduce processing times and facilitate easier access to government services for local and foreign investors.
As the July 2026 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.
