How to find public tenders in Luxembourg (2026)
Updated:
As of 22 October 2026: 224 open tenders in Luxembourg with a running deadline, 0 of them below the EU thresholds — contracts that never appear on TED. They come from 1 source portals and are recounted every morning at 07:30 Berlin time. This page explains where Luxembourg publishes, which sectors are tendering right now, and what a foreign bidder needs to know.
Where Luxembourg publishes its tenders
Above the EU thresholds, publication on TED is mandatory — 224 open tenders from Luxembourg are there right now. The national portals carry 0 more, including the entire below-threshold market. Reading TED alone shows you the smaller part. (Counted per procedure here; the table counts notices per portal.)
| Portal | Scope | open now | of which below threshold | Portal |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TED — Tenders Electronic Daily | EU-wide (above threshold) | 227 | — | ted.europa.eu |
The table counts notices per portal. The same tender is often published on several portals at once, so the sum is higher than the number of tenders above.

2026 thresholds: what happens above and below
Since 1 January 2026 the EU thresholds are €5,404,000 for works and €216,000 for supplies and services (net). Above them, TED publication is mandatory; below them, national law decides where a notice appears — and those procedures are just as open to foreign bidders. In Luxembourg, 0% of open tenders are currently below the threshold.

Bidding in Luxembourg as a foreign company
Any EU company may bid on any public tender in Luxembourg, below the thresholds included (Articles 18 and 19 of Directive 2014/24/EU). Evidence and references from your home country count in full. The documents are in the national language; we translate the titles and show the selection criteria as structured codes that mean the same thing in every language — available for 3 of the 224 open tenders. Submission itself runs through the buyer's portal, which usually requires registration.
Legal basis and sources
The statements on this page rest on the wording of EU procurement law and on our own count, recomputed daily. Both can be checked:
„Contracting authorities shall treat economic operators equally and without discrimination and shall act in a transparent and proportionate manner.“— Article 18(1) of Directive 2014/24/EU, official version
Under Article 19(1), an economic operator entitled under the law of its home Member State to provide the service may not be rejected solely because, under the law of the awarding Member State, it would have to be a particular kind of legal person.
