Question 1

How much does it cost to register a new car in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

There is no registration tax: the dealer usually registers the car at the SNCA, which costs a €50 stamp. A standard number is free, reserving a personalised one adds €200, and the plates are paid to the plate maker.

Question 2

How much road tax does a new car pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

It is the WLTP CO₂ figure × 0.9 for a diesel or 0.6 for other fuels × a band factor, 0.5 up to 90 g/km and 0.1 more per 10 g. An electric car pays the €30 minimum, and a plug-in hybrid usually does too.

Question 3

Is there a grant for a new electric car in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

The Klimabonus Mobilitéit grant has paid €6,000 or €3,000 towards an efficient new electric car, depending on its consumption. It lowers the price of the car, not the road tax, so check its current conditions and dates before counting on it.

Question 4

Does a new car bought in another EU country pay VAT in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a car under 6,000 km or less than 6 months in service pays 17% Luxembourg VAT at an ADA office, wherever it was bought. Customs then issues the vignette 705 that the SNCA needs to register it.

Question 5

Is it better to buy a new or a used car in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

A new car brings the full factory warranty and the specification you choose, but loses most value in its first years. A young used car costs less and often keeps part of its warranty.
