Subject: Resumption of Application of Certificates of Origin

With reference to Circular Letter No. (33/2011) issued on 15/2/2011, which was circulated via the General People's Committee (formerly) letter No. (10755) dated 8/2/2011, regarding the cancellation of certification procedures for certificates of origin, concerning goods and materials imported from abroad.

And in light of the letter from Mr. Minister of Economy No. 1310/1/5 addressed to Mr. Minister of Finance dated 28/2/2013, and a copy to other authorities, it is directed that the Customs Authority resumes application of the certificate of origin, and certifies it through joint commercial chambers in countries where joint chambers exist, and from Libyan embassies in other countries, and that it be the certificate of origin among the required documents when clearing goods and merchandise imported to the Libyan State, while observing the differential in managing and developing trade exchange between Arab countries.

We inform you of the instructions from Mr. Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Libya regarding resumption of application of the origin among documents of goods and materials imported from abroad, and certifying them through chambers of commerce or Libyan embassies abroad as stated in the letter from Mr. Minister of Economy mentioned above.
