Question 6

Why is gold so expensive in Tunisia compared to other Arab countries?

Tunisia applies a 10% import duty plus a 19% VAT on gold, creating one of the highest combined tax rates in the region (~29% above spot). GCC countries like Kuwait and Qatar have zero taxes on gold, making the price difference significant.

Question 7

18K is the dominant karat for Tunisian gold jewelry. Traditional pieces often feature coral, enamel, and intricate filigree work. 21K is also available, while 24K bullion is less common in retail.

No. Unlike the EU or UAE, Tunisia applies the same 19% VAT to both jewelry and investment bullion. Combined with the 10% import duty, this makes bullion investment significantly more expensive than in GCC markets.
