Key facts for Luxembourg
Christmas is the main business gifting occasion, with Saint Nicholas (Kleeschen) also observed.
How companies in Luxembourg give year-end gifts
Luxembourg is an international business hub with many cross-border employees from France, Germany and Belgium, so corporate gifts are often chosen to work across cultures. Year-end client gifts are typically delivered in the first half of December, and staff gifts are often handed out at the end-of-year event. French is the usual business language for cards, with German or English common in finance and EU institutions; multilingual cards are well received. The financial sector and EU institutions apply strict gift policies, so gifts should be modest and clearly branded. Food gifts such as chocolate, tea and coffee are popular and travel well.
