Shipping to Luxembourg from the UK

Although Luxembourg is one of the smallest sovereign nations in Europe at just 998 square miles, it has a population of over half a million and generates a significant proportion of haulage to and from the Benelux countries. It comprises two principal regions: the Oesling in the north is part of the Ardennes massif, and is characterised by hills and large deciduous forests; whilst most cargo between the UK and Luxembourg is shipped either to or from the Gutland (“good country”) in the south. Note that we can handle shipping to Luxembourg in either region and are just as well-versed in road haulage shipping from Luxembourg to the UK

We handle exports and imports to and from Luxembourg on a regular basis, including to all cities and towns in the Grand Duchy – including the capital Luxembourg City, Clervaux, Vianden, Wiltz, Schifflange, Bettembourg, Ettelbruck, Strassen, Bertrange, Belvaux, Mamer, Soleuvre, and Echternach. Other settlements where we have experience shipping in Luxembourg include Bascharage, Rodange, Diekirch, Mertert, Petange, Oberkorn, Rumelange, Kayl, Howald, Grevenmacher, Bereldange, Mersch, Mondercange, Niederkorn, Remich, Bridel, Tetange, Mondorf-les-Bains, Differdange, Esch and Dudelange..

Please take note that our operations tam are experienced UK-based Luxembourg freight forwarders who can arrange small deliveries, palletised shipments – on Euro and other pallet sizes – and much larger consignments on skids, as well. In other words, we can deal with every kind of commercial Luxembourg delivery.

Shipping Times From UK to Luxembourg

How Long Does It Take to Ship to Luxembourg?

STANDARD ROAD FREIGHT TO LUXEMBOURG 2 - 5 DAYS

A full load lorry will typically take two to three days when shipping to Luxembourg by road. It can be a little quicker if your business happens to be located in southern England, however, because, of course, your goods won’t have to travel so far to reach a suitable port for crossing the Channel. Note, too, that Barrington Freight also offers you a personalised service. We do not use an impersonal call centre. As a family-owned business, and a professional independent freight forwarder to Luxembourg, our specialist freight consultants are always on hand.

Our economy groupage service is ideal when urgency is not a priority. Our local partner depots and warehouses will meet your needs when shipping from Luxembourg to the UK economically but our groupage shipping to Luxembourg is just as cost-effective and only takes between four and five days. We are the independent, knowledgeable and professional freight forwarders to the Grand Duchy with truly competitive pricing.

Do you have urgent road freight to or from Luxembourg? Our express services with dedicated vans to Europe are the answer. Euro or the UK export pallets/cartons, 120 x 100 or 120 x 80-centimetre base pallets, plastic or wooden or printer pallets are all catered for with our express shipping to Luxembourg. 

Thanks to the expedited 2-3 day timeframe for express Luxembourg deliveries, there’s no risk of competitors outpacing your trade engagements with clients there. Furthermore, we maintain constant communication with our drivers and will provide you with regular updates on their journey This way, you will be able to offer customers in Luxembourg a swift delivery service and keep them informed about the expected schedule.

NEXT-DAY ROAD FREIGHT TO LUXEMBOURG

For the most time-sensitive deadlines when shipping in Luxembourg, we offer next-day services. Do you have urgent haulage that needs to be in Luxembourg using next-day freight delivery? If so, why not give our dedicated van services a try? We deploy two-driver teams to keep your goods moving and will act as your courier to Luxembourg from the moment you request a next-day shipment until the Luxembourg delivery has been signed for by your customer.

When shipping from the UK to Luxembourg, with departure from the South of England, we can offer journey times between 12 and 13 hours depending on cross-channel services. The road network in Luxembourg has been modernised considerably in recent years, this allows us to provide the most suitable vehicles for all next-day delivery services to Luxembourg. We have a range of vehicles in our fleet, with both smaller vehicles and larger options – ranging from our dedicated Sprinters to Luton vans, each designed to transport your urgent freight haulage with ease.

LUXEMBOURG’S Import Customs Requirements

Customs Considerations, VAT and Prohibited Items

VAT Luxembourg

If you are shipping from Luxembourg to the UK, it’s necessary to declare VAT notices, commodity codes and potentially excise duty, too. In Luxembourg, VAT is referred to as “TVA” (Taxe sur la Valeur Ajoutée). Luxembourg’s VAT regulations are in line with EU norms, though there may be other rates applied to various types of goods. The standard VAT rate in Luxembourg is 17%, which is among the lowest rates in the EU. Barrington Freight’s customs clearance agents can help if you don’t have experience in this aspect of receiving a UK-bound Luxembourg delivery from a commercial supplier there.

Goods or ServicesVAT Rate Luxembourg
Standard taxable goods and services17%
Intermediate rate goods and services (e.g.solid combustible minerals,detergents and cleaning preparations)14%
Reduced rate goods and services (e.g. wood intended for heating, hairdressing)8%
Super-reduced rate goods and services (e.g., animal feed products, books)3%
Intra-community and international transport0%
Restrictions

As Luxembourg freight forwarders, we can assist British firms with advice about what to do about any goods that may be subject to further customs checks and restrictions:

  • Luxembourg Wines and Spirits: Specific limitations and duties on the export and import of Luxembourg-produced alcoholic beverages are in force, such as Crémant de Luxembourg and Moselle wines.
  • Banking and Financial Documents: Due to Luxembourg’s significant financial sector, stringent controls and confidentiality requirements are in place for the movement of sensitive financial documents and data.
  • Cultural and Historic Items: Strict regulations apply to the export of Luxembourgish artefacts, including medieval and Roman relics, for instance, to protect national heritage.
  • Electronic Equipment and Surveillance Devices: Strict regulations and licensing for the cross-border movement of advanced electronic equipment and surveillance devices exist, reflecting Luxembourg’s emphasis on privacy and data protection.

Luxembourgish Craft and Folk Art: Controls on the export of traditional Luxembourgish handicrafts and folk art are in place, as well.

EORI Number Luxembourg

You will need an EORI (Economic Operator Registration and Identification Number) for the UK and any EU country you ship to and from alongside a range of other customs requirements. See our blog on what is an EORI Number? for more information.

Remember, too, that simply registering with HMRC as an importer of goods from Luxembourg, for example, will not be sufficient – on its own – to be able to use Luxembourgers suppliers. 

Barrington Freight operates as a customs clearance agency as well as a team of expert freight forwarders, so we can help you with all of these matters if you need us to, whether you’re importing or exporting. We have the necessary licensing arrangements in place to oversee exported goods from the UK to Luxembourg which has the same regulations in place as every other EU state. Therefore, we can help with multiple consignment deliveries that might include some in Luxembourg and some in other countries, such as those in France, Spain or Italy, for instance.
