**Luxembourg Salaried Worker Immigration Program**Luxembourg’s Salaried Worker Immigration Program is the main official pathway for non-EU/EEA skilled and semi-skilled professionals to gain legal residence and employment in the country. This system is driven by **employer sponsorship** to meet the labor demands of its dynamic economy, particularly in key sectors like finance and IT. The process requires a pre-secured, long-term job offer, and the employer must first validate the skills shortage by conducting a **labor market test** with the National Employment Agency (ADEM). Successful applicants obtain a **temporary authorization to stay** before arrival, followed by a Type D long-stay visa, and finally a **Residence Permit for Salaried Workers** managed by the Directorate of Immigration, which is generally valid for one year and tied to a specific profession and sector initially.
