Starting last month a new Road tax has been introduced for foreign travellers travelling with private cars & Bikes. Fixed at the equivalent of €150 / car must be payed at the border. Local agencies can arange in advance the payment . Tax is introduced in order not to damage the local fixed fuel %oil state fixes price .

Budrinna,
Is this tax based on a period of time in Libya, or for example if transiting to Egypt would it have to be paid twice, ie on the way from Tunisia & then when returning from Egypt??

Your fixer should have arranged visa etc etc, if you dont have it you may be in for a bit of a wait!!

HI Trumpton
Reading the text of the "Ikrar" it seems clear that tax must be payed both in and out from Ras Ejdir and Sollum border, cannot say nothing about the duration or else . Note that the price is expressed in LD , that actually floats around € 83/84 , in the newpaper it is reported in € but also here cannot say more. Will chek and let You know .

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
