Which rate applies?
The standard rate of 17% applies to most goods and services. The reduced rates (8% and 3%) apply only to goods and services listed in the VAT law of Luxembourg, typically food, books, medicines, public transport or accommodation; the exact lists differ by country and change often, so check the tax authority's list for your products. The parking rate of 14% is a legacy rate for certain supplies that were taxed at a lower rate before 1991.

Selling to Luxembourg from another country
B2B sales of goods and services between VAT-registered businesses in different EU countries are usually invoiced without VAT under the reverse charge. You must check that your customer's VAT number is valid, ideally when they place the order, and keep the result as proof. Validate a Luxembourg VAT number or use the bulk VAT validator.
