What if my employee changes their address?

When an employee changes their address, no action is required through Salary.lu. However, the process differs depending on whether the employee is a Luxembourg resident or a cross-border worker (non-resident).


For Luxembourg residents


Employee responsibilities


Luxembourg residents who change their address must:

  1. Go to their communal administration population office
  2. Declare their address change following the commune's procedures
  3. Ensure the declaration is completed promptly after moving


For Luxembourg residents, the address change must be declared to their local commune. This is a legal requirement and cannot be done by the employer.


Automatic process


Once the resident employee has declared their address change:

  1. The communal administration processes the address change
  2. The address change is automatically communicated to the CCSS (Centre commun de la sécurité sociale)
  3. Information is transmitted to relevant administrations including the ACD
  4. The employee's tax card is automatically updated with the new address


For non-residents (cross-border workers)


Employee responsibilities


Non-resident employees who work in Luxembourg and change their private address can:

  1. Make a request to update their data directly via MyGuichet.lu
  2. Follow the online procedure for address updates
  3. Ensure the update is completed promptly after moving


Cross-border workers have a different process and can update their address directly through MyGuichet.lu rather than going through their home country's local authorities.


Employer actions (same for all employees)


As an employer, you need to:

  1. Wait for the tax card to be updated by the ACD
  2. Download the updated tax card once it becomes available
  3. Add the new tax card to the employee's profile in Salary.lu


You cannot speed up this process. The tax card update depends on the administrative processing time after the employee's address declaration.


For self-employed persons


Self-employed persons who are changing their professional address must contact the CCSS via the contact page or via email.
