Libya Customs Status & U.S. Trade Treatment
Tariff treatment, trade-agreement coverage, and live monthly U.S. import/export data for Libya.
As of April 2026, the United States imported $134.7M/month and exported $36.0M/month with Libya. This page covers Libya's customs status, applicable trade agreements, and the practical tariff treatment U.S. importers and exporters should expect.
Trade overview
Libya's trade relationship with the United States has been significantly constrained by political instability and, at various points, US sanctions regimes that restricted commercial activity. Hydrocarbons — primarily crude oil — represent the overwhelming share of Libya's export capacity, but US import volumes from Libya have been minimal and irregular in recent years. Trade professionals should conduct thorough due diligence on sanctions status and counterparty risk before engaging in transactions involving Libyan-origin goods.
Practical tariff treatment
