After five years of continuous lawful residence, third-country nationals can apply for EU long-term resident status in Luxembourg. It requires stable resources, health insurance and any applicable integration conditions.
EU long-term resident status in Luxembourg becomes available after five years of uninterrupted lawful residence. To qualify you generally need to show stable, regular and sufficient resources, valid health insurance, and compliance with any integration conditions that apply. There must also be no grounds relating to public policy or security.
The status grants near-equal treatment with nationals and the right to move to other EU member states under certain conditions, which makes it a valuable long-term anchor. Applications are handled by the Immigration Directorate via guichet.public.lu.
A EUR 80 residence permit fee applies and decisions normally come within about three months. Because the resource and integration requirements can change, it is worth confirming the current details before applying. ACME can help you confirm your continuous-residence record, check the integration conditions and plan your timeline toward long-term resident status.
