Tax authorities probe salt price manipulation in Tunisia
The Investigation and Anti-Tax Evasion Unit has begun examining suspicions of price manipulation in the salt production sector in Tunisia, amid expectations of losses amounting to hundreds of millions of euros for the state. The campaign involves auditing 14 companies, most of which are foreign, with inspections focused on strategic production sites along the Tunisian coast. The aim is to uncover financial manipulation and tax evasion. Data indicates that foreign companies sell salt at low prices and resell it in the global market at higher prices, causing significant losses to the Tunisian treasury and impacting the trade balance.
