not have to visit offices in-person. Children under 10 who are not EU citizens will only
need to be present to pick up their residence permit at the Ministry

order to renew your passport, national identity card, etc. while in Luxembourg
In addition to the registration, all individuals working in Luxembourg must undergo an
immigration-specific medical exam
