The National Registry of Enterprises in Tunisia, in collaboration with the National Chamber of Lawyers, recently organized a workshop to introduce digital services offered to lawyers. The event, held on October 6, 2026, aimed to familiarize lawyers with the available digital services, assist them in using these services, and enhance their understanding of new procedures for completing transactions remotely. The workshop focused on digital services available to legal professionals, particularly the "enterprise account" that enables lawyers to complete various procedures with the National Registry of Enterprises on behalf of their clients.
The workshop provided a platform for discussing practical concerns faced by lawyers when interacting with the Registry, particularly regarding the authenticity and validity of submitted documents. The Registry's team offered necessary explanations on digital procedures and methods for using available services. The event also facilitated direct communication between the Registry's team and legal professionals, allowing them to identify key practical challenges and propose solutions to improve the use of electronic services.
The National Registry of Enterprises was established by Law No. 52 of 2018 as a public database aimed at collecting information and data related to natural and legal persons, as well as economic entities. The Registry's primary objective is to provide this information to the public and relevant authorities, promoting transparency in economic and financial transactions, and enhancing governance. By doing so, the Registry plays a crucial role in supporting the development of Tunisia's economy.
The Registry's importance lies in its ability to provide a unified database on the institutional fabric of Tunisia's economy, enabling the tracking of enterprise development, creation, and dissolution. This information can be categorized by activity, region, size, and legal form. The Registry serves as a vital tool for promoting transparency, legal compliance, and improving access to economic information.
The workshop was an opportunity for the National Registry of Enterprises to engage with legal professionals and address their concerns regarding the use of digital services. By enhancing lawyers' understanding of these services, the Registry aims to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of transactions, ultimately contributing to the development of Tunisia's economy.
The National Registry of Enterprises is also expected to provide valuable data for preparing statistics, monitoring the dynamics of the economic fabric, and supporting decision-making. By leveraging this data, policymakers and stakeholders can make informed decisions to drive economic growth and development.
The collaboration between the National Registry of Enterprises and the National Chamber of Lawyers demonstrates the efforts of Tunisian authorities to promote transparency, accountability, and efficiency in the country's economic sector. By investing in digital services and enhancing stakeholder engagement, Tunisia is taking steps to strengthen its economic governance and promote sustainable development.
