Authors : Ait Medjber Toufik .

Abstract

The reform of stamp duty on cash payments in Algeria aims to reduce the informal economy and increase fiscal transparency. Implemented since January 2025, it particularly affects SMEs in the wholesale agri-food sector. The study analyzes its economic effects, business reactions, and obstacles to abandoning cash in a sector that is still largely informal.
