Aslan Ben Rejeb, president of the Confederation of Tunisian Citizen Enterprises (CONECT), has criticized the 2026 Finance Law, stating that the budget allocated for investment, estimated at nearly 8% of the state budget, remains insufficient in his view.
Ben Rejeb was quoted by Mosaique FM as noting that the government’s priorities in this year’s finance law are primarily social, but he believes that several provisions are difficult to implement.
He specifically pointed out uncertainties and challenges in applying measures such as the wealth tax, vehicle imports and the management of foreign currency accounts for Tunisians residing in the country.
Ben Rejeb also addressed debates around the adoption of electronic invoicing, arguing that this measure undermines the principle of free tax reporting and will create an additional burden for economic actors, especially young entrepreneurs and small project holders.
