The first practical step is choosing the right legal structure (such as an S.à r.l. or a simplified S.à r.l.-S) and applying for a Business Permit. We help founders navigate the Luxembourg route from the beginning, including company formation, practical setup, and the funding direction that may become relevant for the business.

Yes. You do not need to be a resident of Luxembourg to incorporate here. Some routes can be approached without a full relocation at the start, while others involve stronger local presence or setup requirements. What matters is understanding the practical route early, so the business is structured properly from the beginning. We help you establish the necessary local foundation, including a registered business address.

No. You do not need to arrive with the answer already figured out. The purpose of the consultation is to help you understand how the Luxembourg route works, what makes it attractive, and which funding direction may be relevant for your case.

In Luxembourg, a Business Permit is a mandatory legal requirement to conduct commercial, craft, or liberal professions. To get it, you must prove your professional qualifications and have a physical registered address in the country. This can be complex for first-time founders, so we manage the practical foundation around company formation, permits, banking, business address, and core setup requirements.

Luxembourg banks have strict compliance and anti-money laundering (AML) standards, which can be challenging to navigate alone. Part of our setup process includes structuring your business professionally so that the bank account and business address setup goes as smoothly as possible.

The incorporation setup covers more than registering a company name. It includes the practical foundation around company formation, permits, banking, business address, and the core setup requirements needed to establish the business properly in Luxembourg.

The exact timeline depends on your chosen corporate structure and how quickly your documents are prepared. While the core company formation can be completed rapidly, sometimes within a week, the full operational setup, which includes securing your Business Permit and opening a corporate bank account, typically takes 2 to 4 weeks. We map out this exact timeline for your specific case during our first consultation so you know precisely what to expect.
