    How do I get an official company extract in Luxembourg?

    Start with RCS Luxembourg at https://www.lbr.lu to identify the entity and available RCS extract. An ordinary extract, historical filing and certified copy are different documents. Check the recipient's requirements and official access conditions before ordering. A LemReveal PDF is not a government-certified extract.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Confirm the entity first

      Search by name or registration number and confirm you have the right legal entity before paying for anything.

    2. 2

      Choose the evidence required

      Ask the recipient whether it needs an ordinary extract, historical filing, certified copy, translation or legalisation. A free summary is not automatically sufficient.

    3. 3

      Follow the official document route

      Use https://www.lbr.lu to find the issuing authority or authorised service and its current fees. Check what the document actually certifies.

    4. 4

      Check the issue date

      Ask what issue date the recipient accepts; there is no universal three-month validity period. Retain the issue date, retrieval date and source.

    Luxembourg: choosing and checking the right record

    Choose the correct source
    Use Luxembourg Business Registers for the RCS entity and available filed documents. Keep an RCS check separate from any beneficial-ownership inquiry, which can have different access conditions.
    Confirm the entity
    Match the full RCS identifier, including its section letter, with the legal name and legal form. Similar names or group membership are not sufficient to select the contracting entity.

    Check current access and document options on the official RCS (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés) site. For search limitations and missing-result guidance, see the Luxembourg registry guide.

    Frequently asked questions

    Do I need a paid extract to verify a Luxembourg company?

    No. It is a third-party research record. Obtain an official or certified document through the relevant authority or authorised service when required.

    Luxembourg offers political stability, a multilingual workforce, favorable holding company and fund regimes, extensive double taxation treaty network (80+ countries), and is the EU's largest domicile for investment funds (over €5 trillion AUM).
