Tunisian Consulate Reopens in Benghazi

On Sunday, Libya’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced 4the reopening of the Tunisian Consulate General in the city of Benghazi. This marks the resumption of Tunisian consular services in eastern Libya after more than ten years of suspension.

The consulate had closed in February 2014 following a terrorist attack amid a broader deterioration in security across the country. Since then, diplomatic missions have been cautious in returning to the region. The reopening is being hailed as a diplomatic milestone and a sign of improved stability in eastern Libya.

According to the ministry’s statement, the reopening follows sustained coordination between Libyan and Tunisian officials. The consulate is now fully operational and will provide administrative and consular services to Tunisian nationals residing in Benghazi and surrounding areas.

This includes passport services, legal documentation, and civil affairs support, without requiring Tunisian citizens to travel long distances to Tripoli.

The Libyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed Tunisia’s decision, describing it as a reflection of growing mutual trust and confidence in the improving security environment. The move also reinforces the strong historical and social ties between the two neighboring countries.

Officials noted that the presence of the consulate will significantly ease the day-to-day challenges faced by members of the Tunisian community in eastern Libya and will contribute to stronger bilateral engagement.

The reopening of the Tunisian consulate is viewed not only as a practical step to support the diaspora but also as a symbolic gesture of normalization and diplomatic outreach. Observers suggest that this may encourage other countries to consider restoring their diplomatic or consular presence in Benghazi, especially as the eastern region shows signs of increasing stability.
