Tunisia-Germany economic and industrial cooperation

Overview

Tunisia and Germany have initiated several measures to strengthen industrial and economic cooperation. In early September 2026, the two nations signed financing agreements exceeding 100 million euros to integrate Tunisia into production chains, support skill training, and facilitate energy transition. Additionally, Tunisian financial authorities signed a pact to enhance integrated financial supervision, focusing on combating money laundering and promoting sustainable finance.

Following these agreements, the first Tunisian-German economic forum was scheduled for mid-September 2026 in Essen, Germany. Marking the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations, the forum aimed to foster decentralized cooperation and direct communication between economic actors. Key sectors for potential joint projects and investments include healthcare, digital innovation, industrial development, and green transformation.
