As a reminder, this concerns accounts that have not recorded any transactions or have not been subject to a request or dispute for 15 years. If there are shares in mutual funds, they must be redeemed, and the sale proceeds deposited into the Treasury's current account.
For different types of securities, they will be liquidated within a 6-month period, and the sale proceeds deposited into the Treasury's current account.
Any delay will be subject to a penalty of 1% per month, with a minimum of 1,000 TND and a maximum capped at the total amount due. If the delay is detected by the tax control services, the penalty will increase to 2%, plus a fine of 10% of the total amount that should have been transferred on time.
