3 About Luxembourg
3.1
A great place to live
The Grand Duchy is truly a great place to live, to work and to raise a family. Our country benefits from
an exceptional multilingual and multicultural environment with a high standard of living, outstanding
purchasing power, excellent social benefits and low taxes.
Its thriving diverse cultural life, the many sporting activities and its vast green spaces make Luxembourg
a unique place to live in. The Grand Duchy is one of the safest countries in the world, and the proximity
and modernity of its infrastructures enhance its attractiveness.
Situated in the heart of Europe, Luxembourg is a cosmopolitan and dynamic economic centre where
people enjoy building their careers. It also takes advantage of a social and political stability which
generates a prosperous level of development within the country.
3.2
A dynamic business centre
The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is one of the world’s largest financial centres hosting leading financial
institutions, with a strong focus on investment funds and private banking related activities..
It is important to remember that Luxembourg is also home to a number of famous local and international
industrial and commercial companies, hosting headquarters of many important companies.
Moreover, Luxembourg is an important player in the European Union. A founding member of the
European Economic Community (EEC) in 1957, it hosts 12 European institutions including the
European Parliament, European Commission, European Court of Justice, the Court of Auditors and the
European Investment Bank.
In the ranking of the top ten richest countries, Luxembourg topped the list ahead of Qatar and Bermuda.
This ranking is based on the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita. The population of Luxembourg
enjoys a high standard of living and the country is a favoured destination of people looking to relocate.
3.3
A central location in Europe
The country is centrally located within Europe, sharing borders with Germany, France and Belgium. The
Luxembourg City is only 210 km away from Brussels, 370 km from Paris, 400 km from Amsterdam and
280 km from Frankfurt.
3.4
A multicultural and multilingual country
The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a country that is both multicultural and multilingual. On any given
day, you can hear conversations in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, etc. and of course,
Luxembourgish! Estimates indicate that 150 different nationalities live in this small country.
The three official languages are Luxembourgish, French and German. A large community of expatriates
has brought English as another common language in Luxembourg. English is also commonly spoken in
shops and administration.

5 How to get to Luxembourg?
5.1
Road
Luxembourg has an excellent road network, lit at night and toll free. As indicated on the maps (see
section 2. Maps of Luxembourg), there is easy access through its open borders with Germany,
Belgium and France.
5.2
Rail
Cross-border trains provide regular services to many big cities (Brussels, Liège, Trier, Metz, Nancy,

•
Rental contracts
Most rental contracts will be established for 3 years. In some contracts it will not be possible to leave
before the end of the third year. For furnished accommodation, the lease length is usually less: a
contract is renewable every year or every 6 months.
The notice period is generally of 3 months, but of course all the contract terms remain negotiable when
signing. Otherwise you may need to find a suitable tenant to take over your contract if you wish to end
the contract before the expiration date.
Nevertheless, it is important to foresee that your contract includes the diplomatic clause: “If you leave
the country, only 3 month notice is required”.
Before signing the contract, you should visit the flat, and, if it is a furnished property, conduct an
inventory with the landlord. Landlords usually request a deposit of 2 months’ rent plus charges or 3
months’ rent without charges. This amount will be reimbursed at the end of the contract if the landlord
attests the good maintenance of the property during the rent duration. In a rental agreement, it is
usually forbidden to have pets without the landlord’s agreement, so pay attention to such a clause if you
have one.
Of course, do not forget to take out your own property insurance or to take out the tenant’s one. If you
opt for a flat or house-share, you must contact the landlord before moving in.

benefit from all the allowances granted by the Caisse Nationale de Santé (CNS).
Within 3 months of your arrival, you must undertake a mandatory medical visit (as mentioned in your
contract). This visit will confirm that you are in good health and able to work for Deloitte. Our HR
administration team organises this and will contact you within the first few weeks of your arrival with the
details.
The social security body reimburses up to 80% of medical care costs, depending on the type of care
and the scales established by the CNS.
If you go to a doctor or if you are hospitalised abroad (not in the neighbouring region), you must pay the
fees before being reimbursed by the CNS and your private health insurance.

Maternity and parental leave
13.7.1 Maternity leave
Women need to have worked for at least 6 months in Luxembourg within the last 12 months preceding
the start of the maternity leave. It consists of prenatal and postnatal leave (at least eight weeks each,
extendable under certain conditions).
Your remuneration is paid by the ‘CNS – Caisse Nationale de Santé’ (www.cns.lu) and corresponds to
your gross salary (to a maximum of five times the social minimum wage in Luxembourg).
If you are not entitled to maternity leave (you have worked less than 6 months in Luxembourg within the
last 12 months preceding the start of the maternity leave), you will be paid by the Caisse Nationale des
Prestations Familiales – CNPF (www.cnpf.lu)’ (allocation around €750/month).
13.7.2 Parental leave
Both parents are entitled to take parental leave up to the child’s fifth birthday. Men and women have
exactly the same rights. The condition is that they must have worked for their employer in Luxembourg
for at least one year without a break.
Per child, the duration of the parental leave is:
•
Either 6 months full time
•
Or 12 months part time (subject to the employer’s agreement)
The parental leave can either start as soon as the maternity leave ends or until the child’s fifth birthday.
It is important to note that parents cannot take their parental leave simultaneously. In the case of part
time parental leave, one parent can work during the morning and the other parent during the afternoon.
Both cannot be at work at the same time.
The first parental leave needs be taken directly after the maternity leave.
The monthly net allowance for parental leave is around €1,700 on a full-time basis and €850 on a parttime basis.

14 Healthcare
14.1
Social security
As mentioned before, you are automatically affiliated to the Luxembourg social security system from
your first day of employment.
You can affiliate your children/partner/persons in your household if they all reside in the Grand Duchy of
Luxembourg. The request must be sent to the CCSS along with a copy of your proof of residency and a
family record book.
You are required to pay all your medical expenses, and the ‘Caisse Nationale de Santé’ (please refer to
the ‘Administrative formalities upon arrival’ section) and your private medical coverage will then
reimburse you (partially or in total). For each medical act, the CNS will cover the expenses up to a
certain limit, as defined on its website www.cns.lu.
When you visit your doctor, you must keep the original receipt of payment and send it to the
CNS along with your social security number and bank account details. Once you receive the
reimbursement and the documents from the CNS, you must send them to your private health insurance
company in order to receive the remaining amount.
Regarding medication, you will only pay the costs that are not borne by the CNS and/or your insurer.
Please note you must show your social security card on each occasion that you visit a doctor/
hospital/chemist. For a complete overview of the allowances/reimbursement, please visit the CNS
webpage: http://www.cns.lu/assures/.
For medical expenses abroad, you can apply for the European Health Insurance Card on the following
website: www.cns.lu/assures/. Most of the time, you will have to bear the costs associated with the
medical visits before applying for reimbursement.
