Our advice for choosing the best consumer credit

How to choose a personal loan in Luxembourg?

Start by finding the best rate for your loan

In Luxembourg, consumer credit rates vary greatly from one bank to another. They also depend a lot on the economic situation: last year, they rose sharply due to the increase in central bank rates. We advise you to compare the offers in our selection (at the top of this page) to find the best rate for your situation.

Attention The rates mentioned above are those communicated by the banks on their websites. They will then have to be personalised to take into account your financial situation and your current indebtedness. It is therefore possible that you will not benefit from the rates shown in our selection of offers.

How to compare consumer loans?

Comparing personal loan offers couldn't be easier. All you have to do is :

  • Finding the best rate (we display the offer with the most attractive rate in our selection at the top of this page)
  • Briefly check the benefits of the loan offerwhich is displayed at the bottom of each offer
  • Contact the bank and request a personalised rateby clicking on the "See the offer".

The bank will then be able to customise your loan rate to suit your situation. It will also tell you about any additional charges that may apply (application fees, loan insurance).

Why take out a personal loan?

There are several reasons why you might want to consider taking out a consumer loan.

  1. If you want to furnish your flat : you will have to spend a lot of money quickly. So you need an income to pay for your new sofa, dining table, kitchen or TV cabinet.
  2. If you want to buy household appliances or multimedia equipment. Need a new washing machine? A washing machine? A television? A new iPhone or Mac? If you don't want to wait to save money to buy these appliances, you can take out a consumer credit.

These are only brief examples, but there are as many reasons for personal loans as there are situations. Consumer credit is used to buy furniture, appliances, decorative objects or any other consumer goods.

Some details to consider if you have other projects in mind:

Are consumer loans more expensive in Luxembourg?

Consumer credit rates are not necessarily higher or lower than in the countries bordering Luxembourg (France, Germany, Belgium). However, they vary much more quickly depending on the economic situation. If you want to take out a personal loan, we therefore advise you to analyse the offers regularly.

Consumer credit in Luxembourg: what are the tax advantages?

The Grand Duchy's tax authorities allow you to deduct certain costs from your taxes. This is the case for the civil liability part of your home insurance, or for your car insurance. This is also the case for the interest charges on your current loans (personal loan, car loan, home improvement loan, etc.). 

You can deduct all these costs from your tax return, provided you do not exceed a maximum of 672 per year. So if you already deduct your insurance, it is likely that you will not be able to deduct the full amount of interest charges from your loan. That's why it's important to find the best rate for your consumer credit: you'll be able to minimise your interest expenses.

To find out more, don't hesitate to ask your bank for advice: they will be able to help you.

Who can apply for a consumer credit in Luxembourg?

Anyone can apply for a consumer loan from Luxembourg credit institutions (BIL, BGL, ING, Spuerkeess, Raiffeisen). However, the conditions for granting the loan and the personalised rate will depend mainly on two factors:

  • Your employment status (your income and the type of employment contract: if you do not have a stable job, you will find it difficult to take out a consumer credit)
  • Your indebtedness the date you apply for the loan (if you already have other loans, it will be more difficult for the bank to offer you an attractive rate)

Other criteria such as age may also be taken into account in the calculation of the rate.

What are the costs to be taken into account for a consumer credit?

The interest rate is not everything (although it has a strong impact on the cost of the loan). Here are all the additional parameters to take into account when applying for a loan:

  • Application fees (often offered by the bank)
  • The insurance rate (as you will have to pay for insurance to cover the bank if you are unable to pay your monthly instalments)

All these elements together constitute the APR (or "Annual Percentage Rate"). This is a rate that includes all the fees and costs associated with consumer credit. It is this rate that we compare on all the offers displayed on this site.

However, there may be other costs which will be imposed on you when you open the loan (such as bank account opening fees, account maintenance fees, etc.). Indeed, some banks may make the granting of a loan conditional on the opening of a bank account with them. These are costs to be taken into account, as they can have an impact on the choice of consumer credit offer.

We recommend that you check these points with the bank of your choice after comparing consumer credit offers.
