The Tunisian dinar is convertible for current-account transactions. Companies or individuals engaging in foreign trade can apply to the CBT for a convertible currency account. Foreign investors may freely repatriate profits and proceeds from the sale of equity, but other transfers may be subject to Central Bank authorization, and delays may occur in repatriation. Most trade-related transactions are conducted through letters of credit or bank transfers without difficulty.
