The Tunisia Health Declaration Form is a legal requirement that every resident of Tunisia need to complete and sign before entering the country. The purpose of this document is to alert the authorities of your intent to reside in Tunisia, as well as to supply updated information in your medical history and present condition. The general categories of information required include name and birth date, social security number, passport information, contact numbers for family and physician, as well as emergency numbers and prescribed medicines. You'll be asked to indicate your faith if you follow any. You'll also have to declare if you're in need of international assistance (such as help with applying for an immigration visa). You'll be requested to give information on almost any disabilities or disorders that you may have suffered from because of past or current war, political conflict or natural disaster.
This form is not difficult to complete and is generally available in several languages, including English. If you are not a native speaker of English, however, it is strongly recommended that you take the opportunity to learn the language in order to be sure that you have completed your legal duties properly. This is especially important if you need specialized treatment, as the primary care physician might just have the ability to write in English, and will thus require that you just use your other language (if you are not able to read or speak the language) to communicate with him or her.
