Abstract

Algeria has introduced a reform of the tax system, using many tax incentives under investment laws to influence and guide investment decisions, both in terms of sectoral and geographical. The objective of this study is to examine the most important tax incentives provided by Investment Law No. 09/16 dated 3/09/2016, and how these incentives affected the development of the local investment in Algeria. This study concluded that there is dominance in the number of investments in the transport sector followed by industry, construction, agriculture, and tourism, as for the telecommunications and trade sector, they rank last, in addition to the concentration of most investment projects in the north compared to the south, which is still witnessing a decline in investment projects heading to it.
