Algiers – The Ministry of Foreign Trade has announced an extension to the deadline for submitting service import requests. This decision aims to streamline operations and better monitor the activities of economic operators within the country.
In an official statement released today, the Ministry confirmed that the deadline for submitting applications has been extended to January 31, 2026. This extension applies specifically to the month of January, providing businesses with additional time to finalize their documentation and complete the necessary procedures.
The Ministry emphasized that all requests must be submitted electronically to the designated official email address: importservices@mcepe.gov.dz. Applications sent through other channels will not be processed. This measure is designed to ensure efficient handling and tracking of all import requests.
This extension is part of the government’s broader initiative to enhance administrative flexibility and improve support mechanisms for businesses involved in importing services. The goal is to facilitate smooth and compliant import operations, adhering to all relevant legal and regulatory frameworks.
The Ministry of Foreign Trade urges all concerned economic operators to strictly adhere to the revised deadline and utilize the official communication channels. This will help to prevent any delays or administrative complications. By complying with these guidelines, businesses can ensure the timely processing of their import requests and contribute to the overall efficiency of Algeria’s foreign trade operations.
This extension is expected to provide a welcome relief to businesses navigating the import process, allowing them more time to prepare their documentation and meet the required standards.
