As regards the date of the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union, it should be noted that at its special meeting on 10-11 April 2019, the European Council (Article 50) agreed to an extension until 31 October 2019, in agreement with the United Kingdom.
If the Withdrawal Agreement is ratified before that date, the United Kingdom's withdrawal will take place on the first day of the following month. However, if the United Kingdom is still a member of the EU between 23 and 26 May 2019 and has not ratified the Withdrawal Agreement by 22 May 2019, it must hold elections to the European Parliament in accordance with Union law. If the United Kingdom fails to comply with this obligation, the withdrawal will take place on 1 June 2019.
The withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (Brexit) will have an impact on the rights of Luxembourgish and British citizens, as well as on the administrative formalities to be completed by these citizens regarding their residence in Luxembourg or the United Kingdom.
These impacts depend on the entry into force of the withdrawal agreement between the European Union and the United Kingdom, in other terms a "Brexit - Deal" or a "Brexit - No Deal".
This section aims to present the different administrative procedures to be completed in Luxembourg and which are impacted by Brexit.
