Tunisia’s foreign currency earnings increased by 6.7 percent during January and February 2026, reaching 1.4 billion Tunisian dinars, according to recent monetary and financial indicators published by the Central Bank of Tunisia.
Tourism revenues also recorded growth, rising by 4.8 percent compared with the same period in 2025 and surpassing 1 billion dinars.
As a result of these improvements, Tunisia’s foreign currency reserves increased as well. Reserves climbed from 23.2 billion dinars—equivalent to 102 days of imports—on March 6, 2025, to 25.1 billion dinars, representing 106 days of import coverage, at present.
The rise in both foreign currency earnings and tourism receipts has contributed to strengthening the country’s external financial position during the first months of 2026.
