Key statistics

14,358

people were displaced or stateless (or returning from forced displacement) within the country at the end of 2024

10,067

people were registered as refugees in the country at the end of 2024, mostly from Ukraine and the Syrian Arab Republic

4,285

were registered as asylum-seekers at the end of 2024, underscoring the country’s ongoing role as an asylum destination 

UNHCR’s work in Luxembourg focuses on supporting authorities and organisations which work with refugees, asylum-seekers and stateless persons. UNHCR’s objective is to ensure that Luxembourgish legislation, asylum procedures, policies, and practices align with international protection standards. In addition, UNHCR raises awareness among the general public about the work of UNHCR and the situation of refugees in Luxembourg and elsewhere.

The UNHCR Representation for EU Affairs, Belgium, Luxembourg, Ireland, The Netherlands and Portugal — based in Brussels and operating as a Multi-Country Office — covers Luxembourg and works with the EU to better protect refugees in the EU and globally through integrated policy, judicial engagement, advocacy, fundraising and communication efforts.
