Which family relationships qualify?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm which family relationships qualify.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • Not established: the correction failed a second independent check (NAO_RESPONDE: not_found is not honest: Art. 10 of Law 6/1987 (captured, 4fb234ba16f75686.txt) lists exactly the qualifying relatives (wife, minor sons, unmarried daughters, parents and minor siblings he supports); that sentence is the R1 answer, whatever other box currently uses it.)

Who may sponsor or bring the family member, and what immigration/citizenship status must that person hold?

The family residence follows the residence granted to the foreigner.

  • Official capture; exact quotation
    يكون لزوجة الأجنبى وابنائه القصر وبناته غير المتزوجات ولمن يعولهم من أبويه واشقائه القصر حق التمتع بنفس الإقامة الممنوحة له .

What is important for proving marriage, partnership, parentage, custody, dependency or another qualifying relationship?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the evidence needed to prove the family relationship.

Limits of the record
  • Not established: the correction failed a second independent check (NAO_RESPONDE: Art. 8(b) is the general 7-day post-entry registration duty of every foreigner; it says nothing about what proves marriage/parentage/dependency. Previous R4 defect gone, but the new material does not treat relationship proof; not_found would be honest.)

What important financial, accommodation, insurance or maintenance responsibilities apply?

The official source does not state a financial, accommodation, insurance or maintenance requirement for the family member. The law allows a residence visa to be cancelled at any time if, among other grounds, the foreigner is a burden on the state, and it provides for determining which persons must give guarantees or undertakings before entering Libya.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • No income, accommodation or insurance amount is stated in the captured law.
  • Who must provide guarantees or undertakings (Art. 23(z)) is left to the executive regulation, which is not among the captured sources.

How does the application work at a high level, what rights does the family member receive, how long does the status last, and how can it become independent or longer-term where officially stated?

The family residence follows the residence granted to the foreigner; no family-specific renewal or permanent-residence path is stated.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • No progression rule was found in the captured law.
  • Official capture; exact quotation
    يكون لزوجة الأجنبى وابنائه القصر وبناته غير المتزوجات ولمن يعولهم من أبويه واشقائه القصر حق التمتع بنفس الإقامة الممنوحة له .
