What investment option or options qualify?

The Interior Ministry's investor category relies on the certificate of non-subjection to the work-contract visa; the Ministry of Vocational Training and Employment issues that certificate to foreign nationals who are the employer, manager or co-manager with full powers, or legal representatives, on the basis of an investment declaration filed with APII, APIA or CEPEX, or a trader's card, plus the commercial register.

Which family members can be included where officially stated, and what broad residence/work rights result?

The Interior Ministry page mentions investors' family members only when naming where files are lodged: files concerning investors, their family members and the executives working with them go to the offices of the Industry Promotion Agency or the investor support unit at the Ministry of Development and International Cooperation. The official source does not state which family members can be included or what residence or work rights they receive.

    - les bureaux de l'Agence de Promotion de l’Industrie ou la cellule de soutien aux investisseurs au Ministère de Développement et de la Coopération Internationale (concernant les investisseurs, les membres de leur famille et les cadres exerçant avec eux).

What status is obtained, how is it renewed, what longer-term residence/citizenship direction is officially stated, and what happens to the investment when relevant?

The supporting certificate for foreign employers/managers has a renewal procedure requiring the company's latest CNSS payroll declaration for its staff, a passport copy and two 5-dinar fiscal stamps.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • This is the renewal of the Ministry of Employment certificate, not of the residence card itself; card validity and renewal rules are not stated in the captured official pages.
  • No permanent-residence, citizenship or investment-exit rule is stated.
