Launch of Working in Luxembourg Business Guide

WORKING IN LUXEMBOURG – THIRD EDITION

The American Chamber of Commerce is launching the third edition of its business guide “Working in Luxembourg”, which provides an overview of the rules, practices and customs of the Luxembourg business environment as well as the cultural context of the workplace environment, the government and social support systems. A team of more than 20 experts from AMCHAM’s member companies have updated and expanded the content of the publication, thus making it the most comprehensive guide available on the Grand Duchy as a business location.
 
The book's purpose is to facilitate the establishment of new business in Luxembourg and the intended users are government officials (both U.S. and Luxembourg) involved in trade, business and investment issues as well as business people or individuals already located in Luxembourg or considering Luxembourg as a business location for European activities. The subjects covered range from work permits to maternity leave, business licenses to tax withholding, educational resources to private clubs to relocation companies, thus offering a wealth of information for HR managers working in the Luxembourg market. This book has been researched and published as a public service to promote investment in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and to help Luxembourg-based expatriate companies.

The two previous editions of the publication have been enormously successful, most notably due to the way in which the information is presented - in a simplified, non-legal manner - and as it also includes reference materials and contact information.
 
The third edition has found strong support from key players in the Grand Duchy such as the Ministry of Economy, the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce, the City of Esch-sur-Alzette as well as the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. It will be distributed at the various international trade missions the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce and several Ministries are intending to make over the next few years and will also be found at all Luxembourg Embassies around the world in order to support the promotion of the Grand Duchy.

The publication is available at the AMCHAM offices at

6, rue Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
L-1432 Luxembourg-Kirchberg

or at select bookstores in Luxembourg. For more information including prices, please contact AMCHAM Luxembourg at (+352) 43 17 56 or at info@amcham.lu.
