Travel to Libya - requirement for an Arabic translation of your passport bio data page - more information on the Middle East regional page.
Because of the instability in the region, there is a high risk to your security in the areas bordering Chad, Niger and Sudan and we advise against tourist and non-essential travel to this part of Libya.
If you intend to travel in the desert regions of the country a desert pass must be acquired from the Libyan authorities. Your tour operator, however, should be able to do this for you. There may be restricted access for security reasons to desert areas where oil companies are working.
