Why choose a .lu domain name?
The official domain ending of Luxembourg, .lu is relatively widespread in Europe. The State of Luxembourg hosts the official headquarters of a large number of businesses due to the financial advantages available there. Outside of Luxembourg, .lu is open to any individual or business who wants a .lu domain name, anywhere in the world. The only condition is that the domain name must be between 3 and 63 characters.
