What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Tunis-Carthage Airport (or other entry point)
You'll queue at the 'Foreign Passports' counter. Hand over your passport and boarding pass. The officer may ask your purpose of visit and how long you're staying. Answer clearly. They'll stamp you in for up to 90 days.

Prepare documents while queuing
Have your passport open at the photo page, and your return ticket and accommodation confirmation ready on your phone. This speeds things up.

Collect your luggage and exit
After passport control, head to baggage claim, then customs. There's usually nothing to declare for personal items.
