Corporate secretarial in Luxembourg

Corporate secretarial work for a Luxembourg company covers the legal life of the entity between incorporation and closure: board and shareholder meetings, minutes and resolutions, the share register, filings with the Luxembourg Business Registers, and keeping the register of beneficial owners up to date. Every entity on the RCS files its beneficial owners with the RBE, and Guichet.lu says filings and updates must be submitted within one month. For a company run from abroad, it also means someone in Luxembourg who knows which decisions need a notarial deed, which need only a resolution, and how board meetings should be held so that the company is seen to be managed where it is registered.

What to ask a corporate secretarial provider

Ask which registers and filings the firm will keep and how it alerts you when a change, such as a new director or a share transfer, has to be filed. Ask whether it drafts minutes and resolutions in English or French, and whether a person from the firm can attend board meetings in Luxembourg. If your company is a holding or sits in a fund or securitisation structure, ask how many similar entities the team already services. Find out whether the annual general meeting and the filing of the approved accounts are part of the fee.

What does a corporate secretary do for a Luxembourg company?

The secretary organises board and shareholder meetings, drafts minutes and resolutions, keeps the registers and files changes with the business register. For owners abroad, it is often the firm that reminds them which decisions need a formal meeting.

Why do board meetings in Luxembourg matter for a foreign-owned company?
