Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone could give me some information on what is needed to start a retail business in Libya. What documents are needed, do you need a Libyan partner, where do you go to register your business, etc...

Any info you can provide would be greatly appriciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hello SafiaD,

Starting any business in Libya you must have a local partnership, the way this works is the percentage is to be divided.

You need lots of documents, you can use a branch, a JSC , commercial agency or other means - will take 2-3 months at least to get something sorted
