Registering with consular services in Tunisia

Registering with your embassy or consular services in Tunisia makes life easier once you have settled abroad and helps the authorities reach you if they ever need to.

Registering as a permanent resident (over 6 months)

When you settle in Tunisia, Silver Resorts can help you register with your country’s consular services, provided you supply the documents required.

For British nationals, registering with the consulate is not compulsory, but it is strongly recommended. It keeps your details on file with the authorities, makes it easier to renew or replace identity documents such as your passport, and means you can be contacted or assisted more quickly in an emergency. It is a simple step that gives real peace of mind while you live overseas.

Registering your trip as a temporary resident (under 6 months)

For shorter stays, it is a good idea to let your government know you are travelling. Many countries offer a free service that lets you register your trip abroad so the authorities can contact you in the event of a crisis. When you settle in Tunisia, Silver Resorts can point you to the right service and help you register.
