Luxembourg Holidays

Your passport must be issued less than 10 years before the date you arrive.

Your passport must be valid for at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave the Schengen area.

You can travel without a visa for tourism for up to 90 days in any 180-day period.

At border control, you may need to show proof of accommodation, travel insurance, a return ticket, and proof of sufficient money.

Be prepared for the new Entry/Exit System which requires biometric registration like fingerprints and a photo at the Schengen border.

You cannot take meat, milk or products containing them into Luxembourg, with limited exceptions like baby food.

You must declare cash or travellers cheques to the value of 10,000 euros or more when entering or transiting Luxembourg.

Pickpockets operate on buses and in train stations, especially at Gare de Luxembourg station.

Be aware that hotel lobbies in the Findel area are reported hotspots for theft and pickpocketing.

Do not keep your passport, credit cards, and other valuables all in the same place.

The minimum legal drinking age is 16, but being drunk and disorderly in public can lead to arrest and a heavy fine.

You can use a UK photocard driving licence to drive in Luxembourg for one year.

If you have had your driving licence for less than 2 years, the legal blood alcohol limit for driving is 0.02%.

Official taxis display a price list, so check the rate per kilometre before getting in as some may charge inflated prices.
