National Commission Approves Investment Incentives for Two Key Projects
The National Commission responsible for examining requests for investment incentives under the Investment Law held its second session of 2026 on Thursday, April 2, 2026, at the headquarters of the Tunisian Investment Authority (TIA).
Session Overview
During this meeting, the Commission reviewed two distinct investment files:
- The first file pertains to the expansion of an existing project in the pharmaceutical industry.
- The second file concerns the creation of a new processing and canning unit for fish products, a sector with high potential given Tunisia's rich fishing resources.
Approval of Investment Incentives
Following its deliberations, the Commission approved the granting of investment incentives under the Investment Law for the two projects under review. The total declared investment cost exceeds 79 million dinars, while the projected employment capacity exceeds 800 direct jobs.
Alignment with Economic Development Objectives
These projects are part of the development of priority economic sectors, in line with the objectives of the current Investment Law, which aims to direct public support towards initiatives that create the most value and employment.
Role of the Tunisian Investment Authority
This session highlights the central role played by the TIA in promoting the business climate in Tunisia, by supporting project holders and facilitating access to incentive mechanisms, as part of the country's efforts to strengthen its economic attractiveness at the regional and international levels.
