What to Know About Tessit

Key Facts

Tessit is a rural commune located in the Ansongo Cercle of the Gao Region in southeastern Mali. Situated in the arid Sahel region near the border with Niger, Tessit lies approximately 120 kilometers southeast of the regional capital Gao and represents one of the most remote administrative divisions in this part of Mali. The commune covers a substantial area of approximately 15,000 square kilometers, though precise measurements vary due to the challenging desert terrain. With an estimated population of around 15,000-20,000 people, Tessit serves as an important local administrative center for several surrounding villages and nomadic communities in this sparsely populated region. The area is characterized by its desert landscape, seasonal river systems, and traditional pastoralist economy, with most residents engaged in livestock herding and subsistence agriculture along the seasonal waterways. Tessit is administratively divided into multiple villages and settlements that dot the vast desert expanse, each maintaining traditional governance structures while falling under the commune's official administration. For residents and visitors seeking to navigate this remote region, accessing accurate postal code information for Tessit's various sub-regions and villages is essential for communication, administrative purposes, and service delivery in this challenging but culturally rich part of Mali.
