Official wording

قانون رقم (‪ )6‬لسنة ‪ 1987‬ف بشأن تنظيم دخول وإقامة إألجانب في ليبيا‬ … المادة الثانية‬ ‫يجوز لألجنبى دخول األراضي الليبية أو البقاء فيها أو الخروج منها إذا كان حاصالً‬ ‫علي تأشيرة صحيحة وفقاً الحكام هذا القانون ممنوحة علي جواز سفر نافذ المفعول‬ ‫صادر عن جهة مختصة معترف بها أو علي وثيقة تقوم مقامه تخول حاملها حق‬ ‫العودة للدولة الصادرة عنها ‪.‬‬ ‫

Aevamo’s reading

Law No. 6 of 1987 is the statute that creates the visa obligation: Article 2 provides that a foreigner may enter, stay or leave Libya only if holding a valid visa granted under this law. The decisions and the eVisa registry describe or implement that obligation; they do not create it.

Law No. 6 of 1987 is titled around the entry and residence of foreigners and Article 2 attaches the visa requirement to 'the foreigner'; a Libyan citizen is not a foreigner under this law, so the visa regime does not reach Libyan passport holders entering Libya, and they are subject to no visa cap.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions

Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
