Visa and immigration

Fraud alert: beware of fake visa websites and fraudulent job offers!

Beware of false information circulating on social media platforms (videos, stories, blogs)!

The Embassy of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg wishes to draw the public's attention to the proliferation of content on social media, blogs and other online platforms conveying false information about visa application procedures, processing times for work permits, and supposed job offers in Luxembourg. This content, which is often fraudulent, aims to mislead users and expose them to scams related to immigration procedures.

1. There is no visa lottery for Luxembourg.

Some platforms claim to offer visas for Luxembourg through a lottery or an expedited process in exchange for payment.

  • These advertisements are completely false.
  • Visas for Luxembourg are issued only through official procedures, by diplomatic or consular representations, and never through a lottery system.

2. Be wary of job offers that seem too good to be true

Fake agencies and recruiters promise guaranteed contracts in Luxembourg in exchange for payment.

  • No job in Luxembourg can be guaranteed in exchange for payment.
  • Luxembourg employers never ask for money for recruitment.

Which official websites should I consult?

For reliable information on visas, procedures and entry requirements for Luxembourg, please consult only official sources:

If you are unsure about the authenticity of a website, offer or message, contact the Embassy directly before submitting your data or making a payment.
