Moving from Luxembourg to India: CCSS + Tax Exit
Luxembourg to India return: Guichet departure, CCSS pension export, ACDF non-residency, and DTAA.
The 60-second version
Luxembourg exit is compact but cross-border workers face extra CCSS and Belgian/French payroll edges. Export pension records before cancelling mutuelle.
CCSS statement before mutuelle cancel
I export CCSS career statement before cancelling Luxembourg health insurance — proves contribution years for future pension.
ACDF tax residency ends when I register departure on Guichet.lu with India address.
Cross-border workers (Belgium/France payroll) need employer certificate showing last Luxembourg withholding day.
