Designations

The Libya (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 were made under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (‘the Sanctions Act’) and give effect to the UK’s obligations under United Nations Security Council Resolutions (UNSCRs) including .

This regime provides for the designation of individuals and entities involved in:

• the commission of a serious human rights violation or abuse in Libya
• the commission of a serious breach of international humanitarian law in Libya
• activities carried out on behalf of the former regime of Muammar Qadhafi implementing or connected to the repressive policies of that regime, or
• any other activity with threatens the peace, stability and security of Libya or undermines its transition to a democratic, peaceful and independent country

Asset freezing activity helps protect Libyan state funds (misappropriated during the former regime of Muammar Qadhafi) which could be used to threaten the peace, stability or political transition of Libya.

A full asset freeze is imposed on various persons. Separately a partial asset freeze is imposed on two UN-designated persons:

• the Libyan Investment Authority
• the Libyan Africa Investment Portfolio

More information on the requirements for freezing interest and other earnings under the partial asset freeze can be found in the Libya financial sanctions guidance.

Prohibitions are in place on persons (both individuals and entities) entering into any financial transactions relating to Libyan oil aboard a UN-designated ship. This includes the purchase, or sale, or use as credit and the taking out of transport insurance in respect of it.

Ships designated by the UN have specific restrictions imposed: see .
