Luxembourg has clarified its VAT refunds guidance for non-EU businesses

in Luxembourg

Trade barrier summary

Luxembourg’s government has provided information in English on how a business that is not established in the EU can receive a VAT refund.

You can find further information in the ‘Explanatory note concerning the value added tax (VAT) refund application for taxpayers established outside of the European Union’ on Luxembourg’s government website.

This information was previously missing from the website, which made it more difficult for UK businesses to claim VAT refunds in Luxembourg.
