The VAT small-business threshold in Luxembourg is €50,000 of annual turnover. The standard VAT rate is 17%.
SME exemption for annual turnover up to €50,000; no sectoral thresholds. If the threshold is exceeded by no more than 10%, the exemption remains until the end of the calendar year.
Since 1 January 2025, Luxembourg also applies the EU cross-border small-business exemption: a business established in another member state can use Luxembourg’s threshold if its EU-wide turnover stays within €100,000 in the current and previous year. It files one prior notification in its home country, receives an identification number ending in EX and files quarterly reports there. 10% transitional tolerance.
