Creating your company in Tunisia: Complete Guide 2025
Creating a company in Tunisia is an accessible process but requires good preparation. Here is a complete guide to the steps to follow.
Choose the Right Legal Status
Choosing the legal status is the first strategic decision. In Tunisia, the most common forms are: - LLC (Limited Liability Company): ideal for SMEs, minimum capital of 1,000 TND - Single-member LLC: perfect for individual entrepreneurs - Corporation (SA): suitable for large companies, minimum capital of 5,000 TND - Individual Enterprise: for self-employed and liberal professions
Incorporation Formalities
The administrative steps include: - Drafting the articles of association by a notary or accountant - Deposit of share capital in a bank - Registration with the commercial register (RNE) - Obtaining a tax identification card - CNSS registration for the manager and employees
Applicable Tax Regime
The tax regime depends on the chosen legal form. Exporting companies benefit from full corporate tax exemptions for 10 years. Fully exporting companies are also exempt from VAT and customs duties on imported equipment.
