Update of our information on the application for a business permit

Last update

Barring a few exceptions you must apply for a business permit if you wish to carry out a commercial or craft activity, or certain liberal professions, either as a self-employed person or in the form of a company.

You can make this application if you are:

  • the owner of the business (if the activity is carried out in their own name); or
  • the legal representative of the company registered with the Trade and Companies Register (if the business has the legal form of a company).

We strongly recommend that you submit your application for a business permit online via MyGuichet.lu, from a business eSpace and using a LuxTrust product. This way, depending on the information you have entered, the system will determine which documents you need to enclose with your application.
