Law No. 2016-71 of September 30, 2016
The Tunisian Assembly of People's Representatives and the President promulgated Law No. 2016-71 to establish a unified legal regime for domestic and foreign investment across all economic sectors. The legislation mandates the creation of three key governance bodies—the Supreme Council for Investment, the Tunisian Investment Agency, and the Tunisian Investment Fund—while guaranteeing investors national treatment, property rights, capital transferability, and access to state-funded bounties and incentives. It further standardizes market entry procedures, defines strict compliance and monitoring obligations for beneficiaries, and establishes clear conciliation and arbitration mechanisms for resolving state-investor disputes.
