The National Registry of Institutions warns against the circulation of unsolicited extracts

The National Registry of Institutions in Tunisia today, November 12, 2026, warned the general public and economic operators against trading articles extracted from its system that are fraudulent or counterfeit. The Registry called for a thorough verification of the validity of the data recorded in the documents before they can be formally adopted or used in any administrative or commercial transactions.

The registry shows that verification of the document's safety and validity can be done by two techniques, the first being to scan the rapid response code on the contents through a dedicated application provided by the National Agency for Electronic Authentication. The second method is to use the validity verification service available directly on the official website of the organization, by entering the blogger's verification number at the top of the document in the dedicated bar on the platform.

In its clarifications to contractors, the Foundation stressed the importance of conducting this direct and prior investigation to protect transactions and avoid falling victim to counterfeiting networks that target data and legal documents issued by the official system.

In this context, the Registry recalled the legal and organizational framework of its work, pointing to the stringent penalties for extortion and counterfeiting offences explicitly provided for in the provisions of Section 57 of Law No. 52 of 2018 relating to the National Register of Institutions, which apply to perpetrators of these violations.
