Confidence: high Reviewed: 2026-04-08 EN FR

Short Answer

Mandatory military service (1 year) applies to all Tunisian males 20-35 years old. Diaspora with dual nationality: technically required but enforcement is rare for those who grew up abroad. Risk: travel to Tunisia may trigger issues if military booklet (livret militaire) not regularized. Options: postponement (studies), exemption (medical, sole breadwinner), or regularization at consulate. After 35, situation review possible. Consult consulate before travel.

Version francaise
