Buprenorphine
- Legal status
- Buprenorphine is a controlled narcotic under Libya's narcotics law (Law No. 7 of 1990), a lighter tier than methadone; capital exposure attaches only to trafficking, not to prescribed use.
- Consequences if caught
- Drug trafficking is death-eligible on paper, but prescribed/personal buprenorphine is non-capital (enforcement is fragmented by political instability).
- If prescribed / medical
- Dispensed as a controlled prescription medicine where supply allows.
- Documentation
- Import authorisation is nominally required; carry full documentation.

Cathinone
- Legal status
- Illegal, cathinone (khat's natural principal alkaloid) is a 1971 Convention SCHEDULE I psychotropic and is caught by Libya's narcotics law under strict prohibition. Mechanism: 1971 Sch-I transposition, named. As the parent compound it is DISTINCT from the khat PLANT (Catha edulis, not traditionally consumed) and from the synthetic cathinones (mephedrone etc.) that derive from it; cathinone is the named Sch-I alkaloid, cathine the milder metabolite (1971 Schedule III). Trafficking is capital-eligible in law, but cathinone as an isolated alkaloid realistically draws imprisonment, no realistic capital exposure.
- Consequences if caught
- Controlled substance: treated as a scheduled psychotropic drawing imprisonment for the alkaloid.
- If prescribed / medical
- 1971 Schedule I substance with no accepted medical use and no lawful prescription route for the isolated alkaloid.
- Documentation
- No licit personal-import route for a controlled substance.

Codeine
- Legal status
- Codeine is a controlled narcotic under Law No. 7 of 1990 on narcotics and psychotropics; supply is disrupted by instability. The death penalty applies to aggravated trafficking on paper, but capital does not attach to therapeutic codeine.
- Consequences if caught
- Aggravated trafficking is death-eligible on paper; unauthorised possession of codeine draws imprisonment, while prescribed use is lawful (enforcement is fragmented).
- If prescribed / medical
- PRESCRIPTION AVAILABILITY NOT CONFIRMED. Libya's 2026 INCB estimates were not furnished by Libya: the entry is asterisked, and the publication's own legend reads "* Annual estimates were established by the Board". That Board-set list contains NO codeine line at all, only alfentanil, fentanyl, morphine, oxycodone and pethidine. Libya has also furnished INCB no traveller regulation ("Information not yet provided by country"), and no Libyan medicines-regulator source for codeine was reachable. The control status above is what is established; whether codeine is dispensed on prescription in Libya is not confirmed here.
- Documentation
- Import authorisation is nominally required but instability leaves no reliable channel - carry full documentation.

Crack Cocaine
- Legal status
- Crack is the freebase (base) form of cocaine and has no separate legal identity in Libya: it is controlled AS cocaine under Law No. 7 of 1990 on Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances (as amended), whose schedule covers cocaine, its salts and preparations and thus reaches the base/freebase form. The death-eligible aggravated-trafficking regime carries over to crack whether powder or base.
- Consequences if caught
- Aggravated trafficking of crack (as cocaine) is death-eligible under Law No. 7 of 1990; other trafficking and possession draw imprisonment and fines.
- If prescribed / medical
- Cocaine has no recognised therapeutic use in Libya; the crack/freebase base has no medicinal preparation and cannot be prescribed.
- Documentation
- No prescription documentation exists for crack/freebase cocaine.
unodc.org · Updated July 14, 2026
Delta-8-THC
- Legal status
- Controlled, delta-8-THC (Δ8-THC) is caught as a tetrahydrocannabinol under Law No. 7 of 1990 on narcotics and psychotropic substances, which schedules cannabis and THC; delta-8 is controlled as an isomer of THC. The capital reach of a pure delta-8 isomer is left to confirmation.
- Consequences if caught
- Capital exposure: not established for this substance. Libya retains the death penalty for drug offences, under the national narcotics law, for aggravated trafficking, and that much is established here. What is not established is this substance's own position under it: the source read here gives neither the article that would carry it nor any quantity at which it would apply. No threshold is stated in this cell because none was established. Do not read the absence of a figure as a safe amount. The country level position is the one to act on, and the substance specific position has to be settled against the current instrument.
- If prescribed / medical
- No recognised medical use; delta-8-THC is not a prescribable medicine.
- Documentation
- No lawful personal import of a controlled tetrahydrocannabinol.

Khat
- Legal status
- Illegal/controlled, the alkaloids are caught by Libya's 1971-party narcotics law under strict prohibition; khat is not traditionally consumed. Mechanism: class (alkaloid). Trafficking is capital-eligible in law, but khat leaf sits below the realistic capital tier, no realistic capital exposure.
- Consequences if caught
- Not a local commodity; treated as a controlled narcotic drawing imprisonment for the leaf.
- If prescribed / medical
- Khat is traditional plant material with no recognised medical use and no lawful prescription route.
- Documentation
- No lawful personal-import route; leaf caught via its scheduled cathinone content.
euda.europa.eu · Updated July 14, 2026
MDA
- Legal status
- Controlled. MDA is a 1971 Convention Schedule I substance. Libya's statute is Law No. (7) of 1990 on narcotics and psychotropic substances; the substance annexes are not reproduced in the available text, so MDA's schedule placement is left to confirmation.
- Consequences if caught
- Article 34 of Law No. (7) of 1990, as replaced by Article 2 of Law No. (23) of 2002, imposes death or life imprisonment plus a fine of 10,000-50,000 dinars on anyone who exports, imports, produces, extracts, separates, manufactures or promotes NARCOTIC OR PSYCHOTROPIC substances outside legally licensed circumstances with intent to traffic. The capital provision reaches psychotropic substances by class, not only narcotics - so it can reach MDA without naming it. Enforcement is fragmented across competing authorities.
- If prescribed / medical
- No lawful prescription route. MDA is a Schedule I substance under the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances - the schedule reserved for substances with no recognised medical use - and no country anywhere furnished INCB an MDA assessment for 2026, while the closely related MDMA and MDPV each appear dozens of times in the same return. There is no licit MDA supply to prescribe from.
- Documentation
- No lawful personal import. Libya's 2026 narcotic estimates carry the INCB asterisk, meaning the Board established them because Libya furnished none - Libyan medicines data should not be treated as country-reported.
