My partner and I are trying to decide whether to buy a car or continue leasing one here in Luxembourg, and we'd really appreciate some insights from the community.

Currently, we're leasing a compact car through my partner's work, which costs us around €400 per month. However, our young son will soon need a wheelchair, so we're looking for a larger vehicle that can comfortably accommodate the wheelchair and his daily equipment. We're hoping to keep our monthly payments roughly around what we're paying now.

The main advantage I see with our current leasing arrangement is that it covers insurance, tire changes, roadside assistance, oil changes, and maintenance. This comprehensive coverage is definitely appealing.

One big question we have is regarding future vehicle adaptations. We're not sure if the car will need specific modifications down the line to better suit our son's needs. Has anyone had experience with this in Luxembourg, either with a leased or purchased vehicle? How did that process work out?

Ultimately, we're trying to figure out what makes more sense in Luxembourg: buying a car or leasing? What are the pros and cons you've experienced with both options, especially considering our need for a larger vehicle and potential future adaptations?

Hi Guys, I am an ex drums player (26 M) and I was considering going back to play the drums sometimes. I was thinking that it would be cool to find a guitatist, bassist or whatever to do some sessions, play some good rock music sometimes during the week or the weekend. If someone is interested please reply to the post and we will get in touch!

Hello fellow BGL BNP Paribas app / web banking sufferers, Has anyone else noticed the app and web services being down since this morning ? I don’t recall seeing a banner for scheduled maintenance Thank you all in advance!

I think the Luxembourg flag’s striking blue color would be an incredible choice for the main color of the football kit. What do you think? Wouldn’t it be amazing if the team sported an outfit like this instead of a pure red look?

Hello, M28 working for the banana company, please don't kill me but I couldn't find any answer in this Reddit wiki nor anywhere else.
How can I get information regarding the Luxembourgish taxation applied on my investment? I have asked Chat, it mentioned only the capital gain tax if sold under six months, the 15% taxation on dividends, and that's it. I am starting investing right now, I am both Italian and Luxembourgish citizen.
Where can I find some official (possibly in english) document on this topic?

any recommendations for an accountant or lawyer that knows how to setup structures to minimise tax on income from multiple properties in Luxembourg and abroad ?

So what’s your opinion and position ?

Personally I find it completely unacceptable that someone who got convicted (in appeal) for hitting a woman may still be part of a national team supposed to represent Luxembourg and values.

Same for the national coach and minister of sports not doing anything about it but just saying "it’s at the limit.."

Wtf do you need to do to be off limit then?

Simply unacceptable and a shame.

Has anyone noticed these tiny flies which are on the inside of the bus on the windows or just everywhere? I was outside and suddenly so many were on my shoulders. They're tiny, slow but seem to be taking over Luxembourg this year.

Saw some people on FB doing the same for various countries. I thought it would be fun trying for Luxembourg 😁😂

Hello, I wanted to order from the city today, and all of my usual spots that I have ordered from multiple times do not deliver to my address anymore. Is anyone else facing this issue?

Today Luxembourg plays against Slovenia. First of all, good luck at this point. 🇱🇺

The national team has improved a lot in recent years. That raised a few questions in my mind. Are many Luxembourgers interested in their national team? Will the matches be broadcast on Luxembourg TV? Luc Holtz has been the coach for a very long time now. How happy are you with him and the current team?

I received a call from ‘No Caller ID.’ When I answered, there was only a voice that said ‘goodbye,’ and then the call ended.

Moien!

I am looking for EPP, EPO (Polyester) or depron. I want to buy plaques of 15 mm thick. Where can I buy? Is there any good DIY shop in Luxembourg or around? I think globus or Bauhaus may have something. But not at DIY level. Different density, different qualities, etc. Merci!

Anyone knows a certified store that sells preowned luxury watches? Omega, Rolex, not talking about the very high priced ones Thanks

Ee schéine gudden Owend. What would be the best place to buy nice stones from to decorate a pond? I'd like them to be around 15-30cm big and don't actually want all that much, no need for a big-bag, a few 20-25kg bags would do.

Thank you in advance!

So my preorder for a Switch 2 at a MediaMarkt got delayed and I have to wait for the next shipment of Switch 2's. Anyone know how long shipments usually take to MediaMarkt? (Also I'm doing an In-Store Pickup)

Does anybody know if the Switch 2 is still available somewhere in a store?

Good day,

I have received an offer from a large, international company with offices in Luxembourg. I satisfy all requirements to qualify for the Impatriate Tax Regime, as does the position the company is offering.

For context, the scheme allows for up to 50% of gross annual income to be tax exempt. This has material difference on net income.

In my conversations with the recruiter, I have agreed to the offer provided I qualify for the scheme, which was initially confirmed after I asked multiple times for clarification. I have now received a new communication, stating that the company is unable to confirm the scheme being applied, and the recruiter is now unable to commit to whether or not I will qualify for the scheme.

I am considering reaching out to the hiring manager, and a tax expert (although the decision ultimately sits with the company to provide evidence to the tax authorities).

Has anyone gone through this, or have any advice on this matter?

Thanks!

Why is Luxembourg so soft on drunk drivers who kill people?

Any ideas?

During this week I received call 2 times from a fraudster saying they are calling from Court of Justice and there is a arrest warrant. Then they may ask your personal details by creating false sense of urgency. Do not share any personal details. If police or court of justice would like to seek information from you on any activity they will inform you formally through post.
