On Thursday 16 December 2021, Luxembourg's Ministry of Defence has confirmed that the 3G regime will be compulsory in the workplace from 15 January 2022, following a vote in the Chamber of Deputies on Bill #7294.
The entry into force of such government measures regarding the 3G regime are meant to create a safer working environment during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, any employee going to his/her workplace must present either a valid vaccination certificate, a valid recovery certificate or a valid negative COVID-19 test certificate.
Employees with their first dose of vaccine, while waiting for their second dose, can be tested free of charge as of 14 January 2022. As a result, employees will be given a series of 20 vouchers for 20 free (certified) antigen self-tests in one of the five test centres managed by the Luxembourg army until a complete vaccination schedule is confirmed. These will be valid until 28 February 2022 (the website www.covidtesting.lu allowing appointments to be made will be available from 10 January 2022).
