An apostille can only be issued in the country where the document was issued. For a document from Luxembourg that means Luxembourg’s designated authority; no other country can apostille it. We coordinate the submission in Luxembourg, the notary reviews your application first, and the document is returned with the apostille – by courier or, where Luxembourg issues electronic apostilles, as a verified PDF.
Typical requests from Luxembourg concern employment, banking and cross-border commuters. EU member: civil-status documents are exempt and bilateral treaties can waive the apostille for further documents; French or German documents need no translation.
Authority fee: € 20.00 (official fee, passed through 1:1 in your quote)

No Contracting State has an objection in force against Luxembourg: the apostille is accepted in every other Convention country. Non-Convention countries (UAE, Qatar, Egypt, Iraq …) still require consular legalisation.

The apostille itself is standardised and accepted without translation. The document is in French, German, or Luxembourgish; most recipients abroad want a sworn or certified translation into their language, which we add in the same order.
