How to get Luxembourg citizenship — and how the Sproochentest works
Most people become Luxembourgers through naturalisation: at least five years of legal residence (the final 12 months uninterrupted), a pass in the Sproochentest spoken-Luxembourgish test, and the free 'Vivre ensemble au Grand-Duché' civic course or its exam. Dual nationality has been allowed since 2009, so you keep your current passport. A faster 'option' route exists for spouses, people born or schooled here, and 20-year residents. The Article 89 ancestry route is closed.
