Moving your employees to Algeria
If you are considering expanding your business operations to Algeria, you are making a wise decision. Algeria is the largest country in Africa, located in the North of the continent. The country is rich in natural resources, including oil, gas, and minerals, which have contributed to its growing economy in recent years.
Algeria’s political stability is also a key factor that makes it an attractive destination for global organizations. The country has a strong central government that has taken significant steps to promote foreign investment and improve the business environment. Furthermore, Algeria is considered a regional leader in the Maghreb and Africa, playing a vital role in resolving disputes between neighboring countries.
The most spoken languages in Algeria are Arabic and Berber, followed by French, which is widely spoken in business and government circles. Therefore, it is essential to have a basic understanding of these languages to communicate effectively with local partners and employees.
Expanding your business operations to Algeria offers numerous benefits, including access to a large and growing market, a skilled and educated workforce, and a business-friendly environment. The government has implemented several reforms in recent years to attract foreign investment, such as improving infrastructure, simplifying administrative procedures, and lowering taxes.
Algeria’s economic and political stability, combined with its rich natural resources and strategic location, make it a compelling destination for global organizations looking to expand their business operations. With its skilled workforce and business-friendly environment, Algeria offers an excellent opportunity for companies looking to grow and succeed in the region.
Key immigration facts about Algeria
Navigating Algeria’s immigration requirements can be a complex process, but at Breedj, we have the expertise and resources to assist global organizations with every aspect of the process.
Foreign nationals who wish to work in Algeria under a contract that has a duration of less than three months must obtain a temporary work authorization, which can be renewed once a year. Under Article 9 of Law No. 81-10, a foreigner who is assigned to Algeria for a duration of less than 15 days does not require a temporary work authorization. However, a temporary work visa is always required.
To obtain the Algeria work visa, a foreign national must justify their work in Algeria. After the granting of a temporary work authorization and work visa, a work permit is required. The validity of the Algeria work permit may not exceed two years, but it is renewable.
French nationals benefit from a special regime; they need to obtain a foreign worker declaration instead of a work permit. A foreign worker working as a managing director of an Algerian entity is exempt from the work permit requirement but needs a business professional card and, in some circumstances, a residence card as well.
Foreigners who are intending to extend their stay in Algeria beyond the duration specified in the visa must request a residence card 15 days before expiration of the visa’s validity. This card is valid for two years.

Income Tax in Algeria
Understanding Algeria’s income tax system is critical for global organizations operating in the country. Individuals could be subject to tax on their worldwide income if they are considered Algerian tax residents, irrespective of source or recharge arrangements. Conversely, individuals could also be subject to tax on their income sourced in Algeria if they are not considered Algerian tax residents.
Personal income taxation in Algeria is applied with progressive scale rates, with the marginal rate currently standing at 35%. However, on December 30th 2021, the Algerian Government enacted the Finance Act for 2022 (the Act), which re-introduces the PIT globality concept. This means that starting in 2022, individuals who are considered Algerian tax residents will be subject to tax on their worldwide income, irrespective of source or recharge arrangements. The Act also eliminates the exempting character for the taxation of some income categories with regard to their nature.
Understanding Algeria’s income tax system is crucial for global organizations operating in the country. The recent changes introduced in the Finance Act for 2022 further emphasize the need for careful tax planning and compliance. At Breedj, we can assist you in navigating the complex tax regulations and ensuring that your organization remains fully compliant with the tax authorities, so you can focus on growing your business in Algeria.

VAT in Algeria
Value-added tax (VAT) is an essential component of Algeria’s tax system, and understanding the regulations is crucial for global organizations operating in the country. In Algeria, the VAT rate is set at 19%, but reduced rates of 9% or 0% may apply in certain circumstances.
Individuals pay the VAT as the final consumer, with the VAT collected on each stage of the production and distribution process. However, certain industries or activities may be eligible for reduced VAT rates, such as services related to tourist activities, hotels, spas, classified tourist catering, travel, and renting of tourist transport vehicles.
The recent renewal of the reduced VAT rate of 9% for services related to tourist activities, hotels, spas, classified tourist catering, travel, and renting of tourist transport vehicles until 31 December 2024, is expected to boost the country’s tourism industry and attract more foreign visitors.
