Dutch translation in Luxembourg

Luxembourg has close ties with the Netherlands and Belgium, from the Benelux to the European institutions in Kirchberg. Banks, investment funds, law firms and private individuals exchange documents in Dutch every day.

Our native translators translate your certificates, contracts, articles of association, annual reports and compliance documents into French or German. They know the differences between Netherlands Dutch and Belgian Flemish, and the documents specific to each country, such as the Dutch BRP extract.

For official documents, we provide a sworn translation accepted in Luxembourg. Dutch and Belgian public documents are often exempt from the apostille within the European Union.

For diplomas, the Benelux introduced automatic level recognition of bachelor’s and master’s degrees between Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg in 2015, extended in 2018 to associate degrees and doctorates.

Dutch and Flemish diplomas

This recognition covers the level of the degree. For an enrolment, a job application or an administrative file, a Luxembourg body may still ask for a translation of the diploma or its supplement into French or German: we provide it as a sworn translation.

Civil-status certificates from the Netherlands and Belgium

For a Dutch or Belgian birth, marriage or death certificate, Regulation (EU) 2016/1191 removes the apostille and lets you request a multilingual standard form attached to the certificate, which can make translation unnecessary. Otherwise, we translate the certificate from Dutch into French or German.
