The Local Development Bank – BDL and the National Social Insurance Fund for Salaried Workers (CNAS) have officially signed a strategic agreement aimed at facilitating the payment of social contributions by Algerians living abroad.

This partnership marks a major milestone in the modernization of public services and the expansion of financial inclusion for the Algerian diaspora. Through this new service, named “Electronic International Commerce,” Algerian nationals residing outside the country will now be able to pay their CNAS contributions online—simply, quickly, and securely—using a Visa card, with Mastercard support coming soon.

A Step Towards a More Connected Administration

This innovative system reflects the shared commitment of BDL and CNAS to make administrative services more accessible, especially for Algerians abroad. It is part of a broader digital transformation effort led by both institutions, in service of social equity and national solidarity.

By facilitating the integration of the diaspora into Algeria’s social protection system, this initiative also strengthens ties between citizens living abroad and their home country, while responding to growing expectations for digitalized public services.

A Strong Commitment to Citizens

Through this agreement, BDL and CNAS reaffirm their joint commitment to:

• an inclusive and modern administration;
• support for the Algerian diaspora;
• and the promotion of innovative digital solutions serving all citizens.

BDL will continue to play an active role in the development of technological solutions that bring essential services closer to citizens—wherever they are in the world.
