US visa refusals for Luxembourg citizens

The US State Department publishes the refusal rate for B visas (tourism and business) separately for each nationality. We took the two most recent fiscal years — so you see not just the level, but which way it is moving.

13.8%
of B-visa applications from Luxembourg citizens were refused in FY2025
-17.5 pp below the all-country median (31.3%) — refused less often
+2.9 pp year-over-year: FY2024 was 10.9%, now 13.8%
#152strictest of 197 countries
141of 197 countries saw refusals rise year-over-year

The “adjusted” refusal rate follows the State Department methodology used for the Visa Waiver Program: it covers B-1/B-2 visas (tourism and business) and no other categories. For countries with few applicants the percentage swings between years — an artefact of small numbers, not of policy. The median and rank are our own calculations on top of the official figures.

How long the interview queue is in Luxembourg

Even when a visa is available in principle, everything comes down to the appointment. The State Department publishes the wait until the next free slot at every consulate — we broke that down by country.

1 month
until the next free B1/B2 interview slot — at the Luxembourg post
The all-country median is under 2 weeks.
