Travellers from Romania do not apply for a visa to travel to Luxembourg: both countries apply the free movement of persons (European Union, European Economic Area and Switzerland).
No: Romanian citizens do not need a visa to travel to Luxembourg. As European Union citizens, they enter with a valid passport or national identity card; the reference figure for a tourist stay is 90 days in any 180-day period.
Luxembourg and Romania are both members of the European Union and of the Schengen area: holders of a Romanian passport enjoy free movement and a full visa exemption, whatever the purpose of a short stay. There is no application to lodge before departure. This guide sets out the documents to carry, the reference length of stay and the websites to avoid, which sell fake “visas” for this route.

No. A Romanian national enters Luxembourg without a visa, as a citizen of the European Union, and in principle without systematic checks at the internal borders of the Schengen area. The reference tourist stay is 90 days in any 180-day period; beyond that, the right of residence of EU citizens continues to apply, but it comes with a declaration of arrival at the commune of residence, described on Luxembourg's official portal. No visa exists for this route, whether for tourism, work or studies.
A valid national ID card or passport serves as your travel document: there is no visa or prior formality to complete.
Carry a valid Romanian passport or Romanian national identity card: either is enough, even without systematic border checks, because an identity check remains possible at any time, including on a flight within the Schengen area. No return ticket, proof of accommodation or evidence of funds is required of EU citizens. Children must have their own identity document. Any specific conditions (vehicle, pets, goods to declare) are detailed on Luxembourg's official portal.
No visa fee is due, since no visa is issued: the only document needed is a valid passport or national identity card. The prices and processing times circulating online for a “Luxembourg visa” or a “Schengen visa” concern other nationalities or unofficial websites; they do not apply to Romanians. For any question about accepted documents or the formalities of a longer stay, refer to Luxembourg's official portal or the Luxembourg embassy responsible for Romania.
Free movement is not a time-limited visa exemption but a right of residence, which also covers study and work. Beyond three months, the local authorities may require you to register.
No prior step means no lead time to plan for: simply check that your identity document is valid for the whole stay, and renew it in time if necessary. Count the length of your stay against the 90 days in any 180-day period that serve as the reference for a tourist stay; for a longer stay, find out about the declaration of arrival at the Luxembourg commune. The European Health Insurance Card eases access to care, and additional travel insurance is still advisable.



Buying a “visa” or a “travel authorisation” from an unofficial website when Romanians do not need one for Luxembourg. Travelling on an expired identity card or passport, which can block boarding even on a flight within the Schengen area. Believing that a driving licence is enough as a travel document: it is not. Finally, settling or working in Luxembourg beyond the reference period without completing the declaration of arrival provided for EU citizens.
