Luxembourg's Ministry of Justice has provided details on two bills passed by the Chamber of Deputies (parliament) on Wednesday 28 April 2026.

Bill No. 7882B: "JuCha B"

According to the ministry, the unanimous adoption of the "JuCha B" bill represents a major step forward in the prevention and protection of individuals, particularly minors. This legislation establishes a precise legal framework allowing the Public Prosecutor's Office, in clearly defined situations, to transmit certain information from criminal proceedings to employers or entities in the public or private sector.

Such information may be shared when necessary for the execution of court orders or to prevent a serious risk to public order or to the physical or moral integrity of an individual. The bill strictly regulates these communications, both in terms of confidentiality and the use of the transmitted information.

Elisabeth Margue, Luxembourg's Minister of Justice, said: "Significant safeguards are in place to prevent any abuse: a simple complaint, followed by a preliminary investigation if necessary, is insufficient. Information can only be disclosed in the event of an ongoing criminal investigation or a conviction, including a pending conviction, and solely for preventative purposes, particularly in the face of serious offences such as the sexual abuse of minors."

Through this measure, the "JuCha B" bill strengthens targeted prevention while respecting legal certainty and the fundamental rights of the individuals concerned, the ministry added.

Bill No. 8669: Deferred Release of Minimum Share Capital for SARLs

This bill aims to allow the founders of a Luxembourg private limited liability company (SARL) to defer the payment (release) of the minimum share capital of €12,000 for up to twelve months after incorporation, whereas it currently must be fully paid on the day of incorporation.

The main advantages include removing obstacles related to opening a bank account in advance (often delayed by regulatory checks), enabling faster incorporation of SARLs - particularly useful for private equity or alternative asset transactions where speed is essential - and supporting young entrepreneurs, who will be able to gradually release their initial investment.

According to the ministry, this reform aligns Luxembourg with the flexibility already offered by neighbouring countries and strengthens the competitiveness of the financial centre.
