Understanding your buying costs in Luxembourg
Luxembourg property transactions involve several layers of costs that go beyond the sale price. Here is what each one means:
Registration tax is charged by the state on the transfer of ownership. The standard rate is 6%, with an additional 1% transcription tax. First-time buyers purchasing a primary residence may qualify for a reduced rate or the Bëllegen Akt credit of up to €40,000 per buyer.
Notary fees are set by law and calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. They cover the legal preparation and registration of the deed and typically range between 1% and 1.5% of the transaction value.
VAT applies to new properties only. The standard rate is 17%, reduced to 3% for a primary residence on the construction portion of the value. The exact amount depends on the land share, construction progress, and how you intend to use the property.
