Luxembourg Profile
Travellers should be aware of their own security
Country Summary
There are no specific security threats in Luxembourg; however, an underlying threat of terrorism remains across Europe.
Security (Terrorism, Conflict, Insurgency, Kidnap)
A low threat of terrorism remains in Luxembourg; however, the country borders Germany, France, and Belgium. These three countries experienced attacks in recent years.
Political Instability/Civil Unrest
Demonstrations do occur and are often small and peaceful. Demonstrators commonly protest issues regarding politics and the European Union.
Crime
There is very little violent crime, but pick-pocketing can occur in public areas such as bus, rail, and airport terminals, particularly in Luxembourg City. Maintain good situational awareness and do not leave valuables unattended.
Transportation
Road conditions are generally well-maintained. Traffic congestion, particularly through urban areas, is likely due to increased volumes of traffic which utilize several major highways to transit between Belgium, France, and Germany. There are reportedly government plans to make all public transportation free after March 2020.
Environmental
There are no significant environment risks in Luxembourg.
Medical
Medical provision in Luxembourg is of high standard and widely available.
