Abstract

Algeria embarked on a policy of reform with the introduction of the market economy, whereby the state began to adapt its laws to this economic system. The state's monopoly on foreign trade was lifted, and economic operators were given the right to import and export goods in accordance with state laws, as this activity grew rapidly. The importation of automobiles gained great attention from decision-makers and was the focus of their attention, hence several Executive Decrees related to this activity were issued giving its signifiance in the Algerian market. On one hand, the commercialization of new vehicles was therefore identified as one of the economic activities eligible to investment, and on the other hand, this activity was regulated.
