This study aims to measure the demand function for Libyan imports by using quarterly data during the period (2012-2020). The results of the study showed that there was a positive and significant relationship among all the variables, except the import price was negative and significant. The short run results showed that the error correction factor was significant and has a negative sign, and this means that the variables are trending to their equilibrium value in long run.
