What do I need to know before retiring in Luxembourg?

"Before retiring in Luxembourg, expats should familiarize themselves with the country's tax system, as well as the cost of living and healthcare. It is also important to research the availability of public transportation, as well as the availability of leisure activities and cultural attractions.

Finally, expats should research the visa and residency requirements for retirees," said another expat in Luxembourg.
