Currently, the only way you can apply for a Tunisian visa is through a Tunisian consulate or embassy. The application process for a Tunisian visa is as follows:

  • Apply directly to the Direction Générale de la Sécurité Nationale in Tunis
  • Visit the Tunisian embassy/consulate’s website to find more information
  • Contact them to inquire about making an appointment as well as the Tunisia visa requirements. Some diplomatic missions may allow you to make an online appointment.

  • Wait for the Tunisia visa to be processed

Tunisia Online Visa (Tunisia eVisa)
In 2017, the Tunisian government announced they will implement an online Tunisia visa application procedure, which will make the process of getting a visa quicker and smoother. After applying online, which only takes a few minutes, you will receive a Tunisia eVisa on your email account.

The requirements for an online visa will also be fewer.

However, as of now, the only way to get a Tunisia visa is in-person at a Tunisian embassy or consulate since the eVisa for Tunisia is not available yet.

Can I Get a Tunisia Visa On Arrival?
