What changed

The Charter of the United Nations (Sanctions — Libya) Regulations 2011 have been updated with a new citation (F2026C00292, 26 March 2026). The regulations maintain prohibitions on: sanctioned supplies, import of sanctioned goods, sanctioned services, dealings with designated persons or entities, controlled assets, and port entry. Permit mechanisms remain available for limited permissible dealings and asset management.

Importers and exporters must ensure all Libya-related trade complies with the prohibitions or secures necessary permits. Financial institutions must screen against designated persons/entities lists and comply with asset control requirements. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade administers these regulations under the Charter of the United Nations Act 1945.

What to do next

  1. Verify no dealings with designated persons or entities under Libya sanctions
  2. Ensure imports and exports comply with prohibited sanctioned goods and services lists
  3. Apply for permits where permissible dealings with controlled assets are required
