Pensioners bonus implementation postponed to 2027 - Tunisia Times

Saturday Evening, December 6, 2025

The National Council of Regions and Districts adopted the 2026 finance law in its entirety on Saturday evening, December 6, 2025, at the end of a plenary session that began the previous day. The text obtained 64 favorable votes, with 2 abstentions and 3 opposing votes. Among the major elements of the vote, Council members approved the postponement of two key measures, which were highly anticipated:

Article 56, which establishes a dedicated premium for retirees
Article 61, which creates the Fund for Encouraging Investment in Cinema and Audiovisual Production These two provisions will not come into effect in 2026, like the rest of the budget, but will instead take effect on January 1, 2027, following the validation of Article 110, which sets the implementation schedule.
