Due to in-country appointment scheduling delays to submit biometrics, foreign nationals are receiving their Luxembourgish residence permit cards with several weeks to several months delay. This delay does not affect work start dates, as the biometrics step occurs after foreign nationals start working, but could restrict travel. Particularly visa nationals would be affected, as they receive a long-stay visa valid for 90 days, and they would not be permitted to exit and re-enter Luxembourg and the Schengen Area after the expiry of this visa without having their residence card.
