Tunisia: yang perlu diketahui sebelum berangkat

Yang terpenting

  • The Tunisian dinar is a closed currency: you may not take dinars out. Keep official exchange receipts to reconvert leftovers at the airport.
  • Declare foreign currency on arrival as required and keep the form — undeclared cash can be confiscated.
  • Drones without authorisation are illegal and confiscated until departure.
  • Overstaying the visa-free period is fined at departure; make sure your passport is undamaged.
  • Same-sex relations are criminalised; don't photograph police, military or government buildings.

Citizens of Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Uzbekistan and India are visa-exempt only on an organised tour with a hotel voucher; otherwise get a visa at an embassy. There is no working e-visa system.

Masa berlaku paspor: Valid for the whole stay; some airlines ask for 6 months. Damaged passports can cause problems on exit.
