Wow, I found your video very interesting, I have lived in Luxembourg for most of my life (and currently do) - and have been living in other EU countries, which means I never needed any paper work, interesting to hear how you had to do it to be able to work here. I'm very happy that you found such a nice appartement and that you seem to like it here.
I move from the Netherlands to Genk that's in Belgium and my question is can I get work in Luxembourg?? I have diplomas but my English an d German are good and fluent Dutch ofcourse
1350 euros for a studio...found my 1 bed in dommeldange, stunning views, swimming pool, sauna, shop and small pub on site for 850euros, but that was 15 years ago 😳😂🥰 Top tip, DONT live in the city, public transport is free, make use of it... If your a city dweller fine, knock yourself out but in Lux you’ll be hammered...even a few miles outside of the city will give you so much of a better lifestyle.
Thank you so much for sharing. Actually the tips about the caution money with the bank is really important for me since I can't prepare that much money from the beginning.
Hi Justin and a warm welcome to my beautiful country! I hope you will enjoy your stay and your job. I live in the north (in Diekirch) and I am RU-vidr too (but a totally different niche than you 😉).
Great video. I got many useful information from this. Please tell about your monthly expense (without rent), like monthly grocessery cost to you for 1 person and what is for 2 person? What is the total average cost of living in luxembourge monthly? (beside rent/utilities) I am asking so that I and other people get the idea of cost of living there for 1 and 2 persons (without rent)
Hi Justin, I just got my authorisation to stay last week and made an appointment at TLS Cape Town for tomorrow. The only thing I'm a bit uncertain about is the requirement to present myself at the municipality of my residence in Lux. How did you provide an acceptable proof of residence? I thought I would have to find an apartment within 3 days, but it sounds like you had a bit more time to hunt for an apartment! Any advice will be great! For now my plane ticket is booked for end of January.
Wow thanks a lot for sharing your experience. How did you get a job there? Did you get it through an agency or you applied directly through a company's website? I would really like to work there as well.
Hi Justin, Can we live a comfortable life with a gross salary of EUR 60k? Substracting the basic needs and rent, how much savings can we do, if you do have an approx figure. Thanks.
Hi Jeffrey. As a single person that should be more than enough. I earned less than that and I was still able to save a bit of cash every month. It probably depends on whether you have a family or not
@@JustInBerlin Thanks a lot Justin! Yes I'm planning to come to Luxembourg just by myself to save a bit of cash and return back to my country (Mauritius) in few years time.
Hey Justin, your room suits my taste. I'm wondering, with a 50K salary how much should go to rent? I'm thinking something like 800-900 a month, but I'm still not sure where I can get something good for that, given the choices and lack of real estate supply
Hey. Rent is very expensive in Luxembourg, with 800-900 you will likely only be able to afford a small room unless you share with someone in the city center. Otherwise areas like Mersch is a bit cheaper but further away
Hey Justin, quick question. You mentioned that you found a bank that made all your financial critics easier and more convenient for you. I also live in Johannesburg, which bank was it?
From what I’ve seen there are not many employers in Luxembourg. Especially for someone who doesn’t want to work for a bank or for Amazon. Germany really has an advantage for product based companies
Good day, amazing content; am currently in the UK (Uk passport ) and with over 10 years experience in IT and would love to move to Luxembourg. I know I should have moved before the brexit . Can you advise on how to go about it please ? I know I can visit for 90 days . Would you advise me to just move over and look for job whilst there or get a job first and sort out the paperwork before moving ?
Hi. I can imagine that it would be much easier for you to move there since you have a British passport. Personally i wouldn't move over before I have a job since it's very expensive to not have an income in Lux
Hello Justin, thank u for the video. I was looking for such a thing. Could you please give a little bit more information about the bank guarantee for the caution fee. Websites of the banks are not clear so I would really appreciate the help. Also, how did you handle the address notification to the government since you did not have a home when you first went there?
Hi Sevgi. My pleasure! I have had a ton of questions and I am planning to put out another video either tomorrow or Monday. Ill be sure to address your questions then😊 Thank you for watching 👍
Sorry for the late upload. Things came up that I wasn't prepared for. Will be sure to post another video as soon as I have some time. Don't like promises I cant keep
Bank Guarantee: Basically your bank will hold your funds in a savings account you cannot touch, and the bank will give you a form stating this, that you will give the landlord/agent (Don't do deposits direct to landlord). Address when registering: With COVID they've been okay with hotel/apartment/AirBnB addresses, but make sure you move to permament address ASAP (as not updating will make your resident application process complicated).
Tip: don’t go! Why? Boring. Rude people. backwards. Poor quality of life. Free yet limited transport. Aggressive and no police presence with rising crime!
