Summary
Luxembourg has narrow residence routes for some trainees, volunteers, pupils, and au pairs.
These routes are built around a real host, placement, school, volunteer program, or au pair arrangement. They are not general residence options, but they can be useful when the hosted activity is already part of the plan.
Eligibility
You may be a fit if:
- You are not Luxembourgish, an EU citizen, an EEA citizen, or Swiss.
- You have a Luxembourg traineeship, volunteer placement, school program, or au pair host.
- The activity fits the specific Luxembourg route.
- You can provide the host agreement, placement, school, or au pair documents.
- You can show resources, health insurance, housing, and identity/background documents.
What This Route Allows
If approved, this route lets you live in Luxembourg for the approved training, volunteer, school, or au pair activity.
What This Route Is Not
This is not a general work or long-term relocation route. The stay is tied to the specific hosted program or placement.
Next Steps
- Identify the hosted activity: traineeship, volunteer program, school program, or au pair placement.
- Confirm the host or program meets Luxembourg's rules.
- Gather the agreement, placement, enrollment, or host-family records.
- Prepare resources, housing, insurance, identity, and background documents.
- Apply for the correct authorization before the stay begins.
