Municipal bills
Bills sent to you by the municipal office should be paid to the Recette communale (City Treasury) (unless the bill includes the bank account information of a specific office)
Cash desk
You can pay your bills:
- in cash or by card at the cash desk of the Bierger-Center (open 8:00-17:00).
- at the counters of the Recette communale (Rocade de Bonnevoie, tel. 4796-2913), open Monday to Friday from 8:30-11:45.
Direct debit
For recurring bills, property taxes, and municipal taxes, we recommend payment by direct debit. The relevant forms are available at the Recette communale.

Queries and complaints
Any queries must be addressed to the municipal department that issued the bill. Complaints must be sent in writing to the college of the mayor and aldermen within the time period indicated on the bill. Filing a complaint does not release you from the obligation to pay within the required time period.
Payment extensions
If you need a payment extension, do not wait until the Recette communale has commenced legal proceedings. Instead, try to come to an arrangement as soon as you receive the bill.

Tax competence of the Luxembourg Inland Revenue office
The Luxembourg Inland Revenue office (Administration des contributions directes – Service des évaluations immobilières) located at 5, Rue de Hollerich, L-1023 Luxembourg, is the competent authority for issuing unit value and property tax base assessments.
Jurisdiction of the City of Luxembourg
The municipal tax is set for each calendar year by the municipal council. However, this tax rate also requires the approval of the Ministry of the Interior (Ministère de l'Intérieur).
Property taxes are calculated by multiplying the tax base by the municipal tax rate.
Tax cards
Tax cards are issued to Luxembourg City residents by the Luxembourg Inland Revenue (Administration des contributions directes – ADS). Please refer to Guichet.lu on how to apply for and amend tax cards.
