The President of the Republic, upon proposal by the Minister of Finance, issued Decree No. 2006-1208 to establish the conditions and procedures for issuing, trading, and repaying Treasury bills in Tunisia. The decree mandates that issuances occur through auctions reserved for designated Treasury securities specialists (SVTs), who guarantee liquidity and may submit non-competitive bids, while specifying payment to the General Treasury of Tunisia and semi-annual issuance calendars. It simultaneously repeals prior decrees governing assimilable and short-term Treasury bills to consolidate their regulatory framework under a unified issuance and repayment regime.
