Libyan law

The rapid pace of change in Libya creates significant opportunities, challenges and complex decisions for economic operators and investors. To benefit from these opportunities it is necessary to follow the fast changes of the Libyan law and in particular of the Libyan business law and the Libyan tax law.

A huge programme of economic reform has recently been launched in Libya. Among other things, it includes liberalisation measures, a programme of privatizations in the public sector, and a plan to promote foreign investment. Moreover, this programme makes provision for an appropriate legal and fiscal framework. To benefit from these opportunities it is necessary to follow the fast changes of the Libyan law and in particular of the Libyan business law and the Libyan tax law.
The most notable changes to Libyan law have occurred in the law concerning the promotion of foreign investment, reforms relating to Libyan investment law, commercial distribution law and Libyan fiscal law, and to legislation regarding liaison offices and branches of foreign companies in Libya.

Libyan law occupies an extremely important role in economic relations with Libya. It governs almost all contracts that Libyan entities are party to, with the notable exception of certain oil contracts. Whilst Libyan law assigns a certain number of common principles to most civilian institutions, it is highly specific and operates using original and autonomous concepts.
