The Central Bank of Tunisia issued Circular No. 2022-12 to replace Annex IV of Circular 86-02 with a comprehensive, updated classification codebook for external payments categorized by operation type. The directive mandates approved intermediaries to apply the new coding structure—spanning goods, freight, capital income, government operations, and various services—to all foreign exchange transactions starting April 3, 2023. This standardized framework streamlines the reporting and monitoring of cross-border financial flows, ensuring consistent regulatory oversight and compliance with Tunisia's exchange control legislation.
