Libya visa for EU Schengen Zone Passport holders?

sally_za

Apparently at the beginning of 2010 the Libyan government denied visas to all EU passport holders in the Schengen zone. Is this still the case now or has the government changed this restriction. Is it possible for people with EU passports, such as France, Austria, Italy, Spain etc, who live in the Schengen visa zone to obtain a tourist visa for Libya?

My understanding is that Libya has now lifted the ban against EU passport holders within the Schengen zone. This ban did not prohibit UK citizens from travel to Libya. However, for confirmation of visa requirements it is strongly advised to contact the nearest Libyan embassy.
