“Tunisian-made” on this platform refers to objects whose primary transformation occurs within Tunisia.


The designation is determined by place of substantive making.


An object qualifies when shaping, forming, weaving, carving, assembling, or equivalent processes take place within Tunisia using production knowledge anchored in identifiable regions.


Material origin is considered as part of assessment. Material alone is not determinative. The use of Tunisian raw materials does not qualify an object when primary transformation occurs elsewhere. Final assembly or finishing within Tunisia does not qualify an object whose substantive making occurred outside the country.


Design authorship does not determine designation. Objects may be designed locally or externally provided the making process itself is based in Tunisia and meets qualification standards.


Each object is assessed individually against documented criteria relating to process verification, regional context, and production continuity. Where verification is incomplete or unclear, designation is not applied.


The term “Tunisian-made” indicates production origin under defined standards.


It is used as a factual descriptor.
