Personal Effects Customs Clearance Luxembourg
Personal effects shipments to Luxembourg do not generally require any further information other than a packing list to obtain duty free clearance.
In some instances, customers relocating to Luxembourg may be required by customs to provide proof of their residence in Luxembourg and confirmation of their reason for stay such as a letter from their University if studying, or employer if working.
General Personal Effects Customs Information
Personal effects are typically defined as used items which have been in the sender's possession for 6 months or more. If your shipment is checked by customs and is found to contain brand new or commercial items, you shipment may not be assessed as personal effects. Keep this in mind if you are sending Christmas gifts or other new items. Please check with customs so you are aware of potential customs duties, follow any advice given and attach all necessary documentation.
In order to demonstrate that your shipment consists of personal effects, you will be required to complete a brief non-generic packing list online, entries to be made in the format: "5 x Cotton Dresses, 2 x Jeans, 3 x Pair of Gloves", and so on, rather than as "10 x Used Clothing".
As customs processes and allowances vary by country, we advise all customers take 5 minutes to check how their personal circumstances and what they are sending will be assessed under the prevailing customs regulations of the destination.
More information is available on our customs information page.

About Luxembourg
Luxembourg (official title, ‘Grand Duchy of Luxembourg’) is a Eurozone country in Western Europe bordering Germany, Belgium and France. Its official language is Luxembourgish (Lëtzebuergesch), with French and German used as administrative languages. This small country of only 2587 square kilometres and 562,958 inhabitants is a Constitutional Monarchy, whose head of state is HRH Grand Duke Henri. The country enjoys a mild climate, with an average minimum temperature of only -1°C (30°F) in winter and an average maximum temperature of 23°C (73°F) in summer.
Luxembourg makes a great travel destination, whether you are looking for beautiful landscapes to explore during a week-long activity break, or architecture to admire during a couple of days in the city.
The capital of the country, Luxembourg City contains plenty of sites, shops and restaurants to keep you busy for a few days, from the elegant Grand Ducal Palace, to the old quarters of the city and its fortifications, and the Musée d’Art Moderne, itself an architecturally impressive building. Shopping in Luxembourg City comes with the added bonus for visitors residing outside the EC of VAT being deducted from prices in many shops.
If you are planning to venture beyond the capital city, there are plenty of impressive landscapes to walk or cycle in, such as the Mullerthal region, the Moselle, the Ardennes and the areas around the rivers Sûre and Our. The Mullerthal region contains three different walking trails and there are cycle paths following the three rivers, Moselle, Sûre and Our.

Air Freight to Luxembourg
If you have something like a console table or an ottoman to ship to Luxembourg, air freight might be the option for you. Transit time is usually one to two days, making this a quick service. The cost can be quite high, though, especially if you have a large shipment. In addition, you will need to hire a customs agent to clear your shipment through customs. Another cost to think about is getting your items to and from the airport, which means the price of using air freight could quickly mount up. If you send internationally by air freight to Luxembourg your items will likely arrive at Luxembourg-Findel Airport.
Sea Freight and Container Shipping to Luxembourg
Sea freight or container shipping is another option for shipping large bulky items to Luxembourg. Sea freight shipping can take a number of weeks but this option can be cheaper than air freight. You will still need to pay for the services of a customs agent, however, and will need to sort out how to get your items to and from the ports. When using container shipping to Luxembourg, your items will most likely arrive in a neighbouring country that borders the sea, such as Belgium, France or Germany.
Shipping Goods to Luxembourg
You must research current customs rules when shipping goods to Luxembourg. You should know about any duty that you need to pay and what items are permitted to be shipped to Luxembourg, which items are restricted, and which are entirely prohibited. Take a look at the prohibited items and customs sections on this page for more information.
