About Luxembourg Citizenship and Residency

Luxembourg is one of the most attractive business destinations worldwide. For those who wish to reside in this EU nation with a flourishing economy, the Luxembourg Residency by investment program is the most efficient way to acquire such status.

While Luxembourg doesn’t have a citizenship by investment scheme, citizenship is possible. First, third-country nationals must obtain a residence permit and live in the Luxembourg territory for five years to order to receive a passport. To obtain a Luxembourg passport, third-country nationals must have a clean criminal record, have lived in Luxembourg for at least five years uninterruptedly, and attend the course “Living together in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg” and pass a language test.

A Luxembourg resident permit entitles you to visa-free travel throughout the European Union, in addition to living in a safe and stable EU member country with good economic prospects (including all 26 Schengen member states). You can travel to 174 countries without a visa as a citizen.

For those willing to spend at least half of their year in Luxembourg, the Luxembourg investor scheme is a perfect way to gain European citizenship. The Luxembourg passport is one of the best globally, allowing for free movement within the European Union and 90 days of visa-free travel to the United States each year. Luxembourg has lower tax rates than most of Europe. If disposed of after six months and without 10% ownership in the last five years of the business, capital gains on locally traded stock can be tax-free. The Luxembourg Investor Program for Foreigners offers you a pathway to a secure and prosperous life.

Luxembourg Permanent Residency

后 5年 of uninterrupted living, it is possible to launch the application for permanent residency in Luxembourg.

The length of the stay is not deemed to be interrupted by:

  • Temporary absences of less than 6 consecutive months and which do not exceed a total of more than 10 months in 5 years;
  • Uninterrupted absences of a maximum of 12 consecutive months for important reasons, such as pregnancy and childbirth; a serious illness; studies, or professional training.

Luxembourg Citizenship

Successful clients can apply for Luxembourgish citizenship after five years of continuous residence, gaining a passport to this EU nation. The final year of residence immediately preceding the citizenship application must have been uninterrupted. To receive citizenship, investors need to prove knowledge of the Luxembourgish language through an oral test and take an integration course.

Luxembourg Dual Citizenship

The Law, which was entered into force on January 1, 2009, allows dual citizenship or even multiple citizenships. Luxembourgian citizens who voluntarily either acquire or recover foreign citizenship will not lose their citizenship.
