Favorable taxation

Besides the lowest level of VAT in the European Union (EU), Luxembourg's effective corporate income tax is among the most favorable in Europe. Accelerated depreciation and tax credits, applied to qualifying investments, complete the attractive tax climate, thus contributing to the successful creation of start-ups and to a high return on investment.
