The verdict in three sentences
In Luxembourg, an immigration and relocation firm website built by a local agency costs, as a 2026 ballpark, between 8 000 and 30 000 EUR, more with a secure client area for documents. Kolonell builds the service pages, employer and individual journeys and first contact forms at a fixed price: 2 700, 4 500 or 8 200 EUR, delivered in 3 to 4 weeks on Starter and Growth. The real questions are languages (French, English, often German), how the site collects sensitive personal data, and the line between administrative support and legal advice, which the site's copy must respect.
This version is written for the English-speaking founders and partners of relocation firms in Luxembourg, many of whom work mainly with the HR teams of international employers.
What do Luxembourg agencies, freelancers and Kolonell charge?
The figures below are prudent ballparks. They draw on public rate cards of agencies in the Grand Duchy and the Greater Region, minimum project sizes on Clutch.co profiles, hourly rates published by Luxembourg agencies (often 90 to 150 EUR per hour) and rates listed on Malt and Upwork. Agencies in Metz, Arlon or Trier often charge less, and a cross-border freelancer can be at Kolonell's level: compare what is included, not just the totals.
| Criterion | Luxembourg agency | Freelancer (Luxembourg or Greater Region) | Kolonell |
|---|---|---|---|
| Build, 2026 ballpark | 8 000 to 30 000 EUR | 2 500 to 9 000 EUR | 2 700 / 4 500 / 8 200 EUR, fixed price |
| Changes outside scope | Often 90 to 150 EUR per hour | Often 50 to 90 EUR per hour | Quoted before any work |
| Usual timeline | 8 to 14 weeks | 5 to 10 weeks | 3 to 4 weeks, Premium usually 4 to 6 |
| Service page copy | Often billed separately | Rarely included | Native French or English included |
| German version | Often offered | Variable | Supplied by you or quoted separately |
| Client area for documents | Built on quote | Rarely | Quoted on request (custom application) |
| Ownership | Check the contract | Check the contract | Domain in your name, all access handed over |
A Luxembourg agency remains a good fit if you want workshops in your offices, a team video and a client area built alongside the site. Kolonell fits when you want a clear site, written in native French and English, at a price set before work starts. Your project manager is reachable in your time zone, with Google Meet calls at your hour and a written update every week; the team, based in Senegal (GMT), is one to two hours behind Luxembourg. Payment by bank transfer or Wise, 50% at kickoff, 50% on delivery. Packages are detailed on our international offer.
What budget should you plan over three years, practical guides included?
A relocation firm lives on its content: guides on registering at the commune, joining social security, finding a home or a school. These pages need updating whenever procedures change. The table keeps the same maintenance assumption on both sides, since Kolonell quotes maintenance on request after the support period.
| Item over 36 months | Luxembourg agency (mid-range) | Kolonell Premium |
|---|---|---|
| Build, FR and EN site | 19 000 EUR | 8 200 EUR, bilingual FR/EN included |
| Maintenance (same assumption) | 150 EUR per month over 30 months, 4 500 EUR | 4 500 EUR, quoted on request after 6 months of support |
| 12 practical guides over three years | 4 hours at 120 EUR each, 5 760 EUR | Written by your team or quoted, assumption 2 400 EUR |
| German version | Option, 2 000 EUR | Translator, 1 800 EUR |
| Third-party secure document sharing tool | 40 EUR per month, 1 440 EUR | 1 440 EUR |
| Team portraits | 900 EUR | 900 EUR, local photographer |
| Indicative total | 33 600 EUR | 19 240 EUR |
The table structures the comparison; it does not predict your invoice. A firm working only with French-speaking individuals can aim for Growth at 4 500 EUR plus a single page in English.
What does each package include for an immigration and relocation firm?
| Element | Starter 2 700 EUR | Growth 4 500 EUR | Premium 8 200 EUR |
|---|---|---|---|
| Service pages | Immigration, relocation, settling-in | One page per service and audience | Full employer and individual structure |
| Corporate (HR) offer | Dedicated section | Page with process and HR form | Pages by mobility type, proposal request |
| Practical guides | 3 guides | 8 guides, editable by your team | Guide library organised by step |
| Appointment booking | Link to your calendar | Embedded calendar | Embedded calendar by consultant and language |
| First contact form | Included, minimal | Included, sorted by situation | Included, employer and individual journeys |
| Bilingual FR/EN site | No | No | Included |
| Support after launch | 3 months | 3 months | 6 months |
A client area where clients upload passports and contracts, online case tracking or an integration with your case management software is a custom application quoted on request. Ongoing SEO is also quoted on request.
What does a Luxembourg relocation firm website need?
Luxembourg has one of the most international populations in Europe: nearly half of residents are foreign nationals, and more than 200 000 cross-border workers commute in daily from France, Belgium and Germany. A relocation firm's clients are often the HR teams of banks, fund managers, audit firms and companies in Kirchberg and Cloche d'Or bringing in non-EU hires, as well as families looking for a home, a school and their bearings. The site should:
- Separate the two audiences clearly: employers (volume, process, timelines) and individuals (steps, documents, support).
- Describe the steps without promising outcomes: no guarantee of a residence permit or work authorisation, no timeline presented as certain.
- Speak at least French and English, and German if your clients ask for it; Luxembourgish is a plus on settling-in pages.
- Collect the minimum at first contact: nationality, situation, planned arrival date, and nothing more until a secure tool is in place for documents.
- Present consultants with their real languages and areas.
- Stay current: an outdated procedure on a guide costs more trust than a missing page.
Compliance, facts only. The GDPR applies, overseen by the CNPD: passport copies, family details and children's data call for controlled hosting and access, and a precise privacy policy. Legal advice on immigration is in principle reserved to lawyers registered with a Luxembourg bar; a relocation firm therefore describes its administrative support without presenting itself as a legal adviser, and checks this point, along with its business permit (autorisation d'établissement), with its own counsel. WCAG 2.1 AA is a sound accessibility reference, and the European Accessibility Act has applied since 28 June 2025 to certain services, to be checked for your activity. This is not legal advice.

Which red flags should you spot in a quote?
- Wording like "guaranteed residence permit" suggested by the copywriter: refuse it.
- A form that asks for a passport copy by plain email from the start.
- A client area "included" with no detail on hosting, security and access.
- Only one language quoted when your HR clients write in English.
- The domain registered in the agency's name.
- No way to update guides without going back to the provider.
Mini case study
Illustrative example. Sophie L. founded a five-consultant relocation firm in Strassen that works mainly for the HR teams of fund management companies. A Luxembourg agency quotes 21 000 EUR for a FR, EN and DE site delivered in 14 weeks. She chooses Kolonell Premium at 8 200 EUR, adds 1 800 EUR of German translation and 700 EUR of portraits by a local photographer.
Total: 10 700 EUR, or 10 300 EUR less, delivered in 6 weeks. The secure client area stays a second project, quoted on request once her case volume is known; until then, she uses a third-party file sharing tool.
FAQ
How much does an immigration and relocation firm website cost in Luxembourg in 2026?
As a ballpark, 8 000 to 30 000 EUR with a Luxembourg agency and 2 500 to 9 000 EUR with a freelancer. Kolonell charges a fixed 2 700, 4 500 or 8 200 EUR.
Can the site be in French, English and German?
Bilingual FR/EN is included in Premium at 8 200 EUR. German, Portuguese or Luxembourgish are supplied by you or quoted separately, often 1 500 to 2 500 EUR for German.
Can we receive identity documents through the site?
Not through a standard form. A secure client area is an application quoted on request; in the meantime, a third-party secure sharing tool often costs 20 to 60 EUR per month.
Does Kolonell write the procedure guides?
Yes, in native French or English, from your information: 3 guides on Starter, 8 on Growth. Your team validates each procedure, since it knows current practice.
How does payment work?
By bank transfer or Wise, 50% at kickoff and 50% on delivery. On Premium, that means two payments of 4 100 EUR.
