Driving in Luxembourg

The rules of the road as our desk recorded them, native unit first.

Driving side

Right

Speed limits

50 / 90 / 130 km/h · 31 / 56 / 81 mph

urban / rural / motorway

International permit (IDP)

0.05% (0.02% for new and professional drivers)

Tolls

None.

Headlights

Child seats

Mandatory under 150 cm or 18 years.

The motorway limit drops to 110 km/h in wet conditions and is camera-enforced. Fuel is cheaper than in Belgium, France and Germany, which is why border stations queue. Parking in Luxembourg City is expensive and the free transport makes driving in pointless.

Rules change - verify with an official source before you rent.
