VAT (TVA)

How VAT works in Tunisia

Tunisia's VAT is 19%, with an intermediate 13% (petroleum, professionals, new housing) and a reduced 7% for basic foodstuffs. The dinar carries 3 decimals (millimes) — bookeeper rounds it precisely.

El Fatoora (TTN)

Tunisia's "El Fatoora" e-invoicing, run through Tunisie TradeNet (TTN), has been mandatory for B2G and large taxpayers for years, and the 2026 Finance Law extends it to all VAT-subject services. Today bookeeper produces tax-correct digital invoices; native TTN El Fatoora integration is on our roadmap.
