According to Art. 14.3 of the Federal Law No. 44-FZ, the Government can establish a ban on the admission of goods, works and services originating from foreign states and impose restrictions on the admission of these goods, works, and services, including the minimum mandatory share of purchases of Russian goods in order to protect the foundations of the constitutional system, ensure the country's defence and state security, protect the internal market of the Russian Federation, develop the national economy, and support Russian producers.

In January 2016, through Government Decree No. 968, Russia implemented a ban on procuring 113 types of foreign-made radio-electronic products and components for state and municipal needs, provided there are at least two bids for similar items manufactured in Russia or a member state of the Eurasian Economic Union. This list was significantly reduced in August 2020, when Government Resolution No. 878 limited the restrictions to 13 types of foreign-made radio-electronic products and components. The most recent amendments to this list were introduced in December 2023 through the Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 2094, "On Amendments to Certain Acts of the Government of the Russian Federation."

Government Decree No. 1746 of December 2019, "On establishing a prohibition on the admission of certain types of goods originating from foreign countries, and amending certain acts of the government of the Russian Federation", puts in place a two-year prohibition on the procurement of almost all types of memory storage devices from foreign states for governmental and municipal needs, except for data storage systems included in the unified state register of Russian radio-electronic devices.

Decree No. 1236 restricts the procurement of foreign software, mandating that only Russian software may be used for state and municipal orders. Exceptions to this rule are permitted only when Russian software is unavailable or fails to meet specific criteria, allowing organisations to procure software from foreign providers in such cases.

It is reported that, effective January 2022, procuring entities in Russia are mandated to allocate no less than 25% of their total annual procurement volume to small businesses and socially oriented non-commercial organisations. These preferential allocations are detailed in procurement notices and documentation, although this information is not accessible online. Despite this lack of transparency, the prioritisation of locally produced technologies, digital goods, and services has been a consistent focus of Russian policy. Since 2015, sector-specific regulations have reinforced this approach. These include the Resolution No. 1442 of 24 December 2015 "On procurement of innovative products, high-tech products certain types of legal entities and amending certain Acts of the Russian Federation" (Постановление Правительства РФ от 25 декабря 2015 г. N 1442 "О закупках инновационной продукции, высокотехнологичной продукции отдельными видами юридических лиц и внесении изменений в отдельные акты Правительства Российской Федерации"), which establishes procedures for determining the annual volume of purchases by State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) of innovative and high-tech products, including minimum purchasing requirements from SMEs. Furthermore, Resolution No. 717 of 2016 identified 135 SOEs subject to these minimum SME purchasing mandates.

Ministry of Economic Development's Decision No. 155 grants preferences of 15% (30% in case of radio-electronic equipment) in relation to the contract price in public procurement auctions and tenders to participants who propose to supply goods originating from Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) countries. The Decision was later replaced by Decision No. 126 of the Ministry of Finance in June 2018, which contains a similar provision with regard to price preference to EAEU countries.

“.ly” is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, managed by the Libyan Spider Network. Anyone can register domain names with the “.ly” extension for a minimum period of one year. The official website of Libya's top-level domain registry states that there are no requirements for local presence or the appointment of a local representative. However, since 2010, as announced by the Libyan Spider Network, all “.ly” domain names shorter than four characters may only be registered by companies with a presence in Libya, and the registration must be processed through Libya Telecom and Technology. In addition, according to the official website for the top-level domain of Libya's registry, domain names must not contain "obscene, scandalous, indecent, or contrary to Libyan law or Islamic morality words, phrases nor abbreviations".

Libya lacks a comprehensive framework for consumer protection that applies to online transactions. However, Arts. 48-57 of Law No. 6-2022 on electronic transactions sets some rules for the relationship between the seller and consumer in electronic commerce transactions. A proposed draft legislation is supposed to fill in this gap. It has been in the pipeline since 2017. It explains that the law will be applicable to electronically delivered services and to advertisers using all kinds of media tools. The government submitted the draft law to legislative authorities for consideration in June 2023 and the law has still not been adopted.

Libya has not signed the United Nations (UN) Convention on the Use of Electronic Communications in International Contracts.

The maximum amount transferred per person through all banks operating in Libya, whether through Visa or MasterCard cards or quick transfers, is USD 20,000 or its equivalent in other currencies per year. Additionally, the limit for issued Visa or MasterCard cards should not exceed an amount of USD 10,000 or its equivalent in other currencies per year.

USD 207) for individuals, 10,000 LYD (approx. USD 2,070) for small merchants or enterprises, 20,000 LYD (approx. USD 4,150) for medium merchants or enterprises and 50,000 LYD (approx.
