Summary
Luxembourg's posted-worker residence route is for some third-country employees temporarily sent to Luxembourg by an employer established outside Luxembourg.
This is an employer-driven route. It depends on a real posting assignment, not a normal direct hire by a Luxembourg employer.
Eligibility
You may be a fit if:
- You are not Luxembourgish, an EU citizen, an EEA citizen, or Swiss.
- You are employed by a company established outside Luxembourg.
- That employer is temporarily posting you to Luxembourg.
- You can document the employment relationship and the Luxembourg assignment.
- You can provide identity, background, housing, and authorization documents.
What This Route Allows
If approved, this route lets you live in Luxembourg for the temporary posting assignment.
What This Route Is Not
This is not the right route for an ordinary local hire. If a Luxembourg employer is hiring you directly, the salaried-worker route or EU Blue Card may be a better fit.
Next Steps
- Confirm the assignment is a temporary posting by your employer abroad.
- Gather employment records, posting letters, and assignment documents.
- Confirm the Luxembourg host or client details.
- Prepare identity, background, housing, and insurance documents.
- Apply for the correct authorization before the posting begins.
