Hello everyone. I am a non-EU citizen, Family is growing and can no longer cram ourselves into a single toilet apartment in Luxembourg. If we move it increases our rent to 50% of net income. So we are really looking for houses outside Luxembourg that we can afford. Can non-EU citizen working in Lux on work and resident permit for past 4 years, become a frontaillier? What are the rules to follow in Lux and say in De? Thank You

Yes you can do that, but the other national paper work must be done.

We need to know which County will be your next, Germany, France or Belgium? At best with postal code as it is most a local office which you need to contact.

Hello, we had a similar case with my wife, who is a non-EU citizen. We work in Luxembourg and live in Germany. Since I am an EU-citizen working in Lux, she did not need a work permit (see second link below).

The general work permit information is here:

Working in Luxembourg as a third-country national and cross-border worker — Citizens — Guichet.lu - Administrative Guide - Luxembourg (public.lu)

More relevant in our case was this very specific exemption:

Work permit exemption for third-country nationals who are the spouse, partner or child of an EU citizen cross-border worker — Citizens — Guichet.lu - Administrative Guide - Luxembourg (public.lu)

For the second case, just write an email to the immigration directorate and they will send you a letter confirming the exemption.

Hope this helps!
