Advice

At the airport, please allow enough time for the Customs approval process before your flight departs.
If you are departing from Luxemburg airport, but changing flights at another EU airport and the goods you are exporting are to be checked through to a destination outside the EU, go to Customs at the Luxemburg airport and your Tax Free form will be export validated as if you were at the EU departure point.
