Luxembourg is home to one of the largest Turkish communities in Europe by proportion of population. With more than 8,000 Turkish nationals residing in the country, demand for certified Turkish-French and Turkish-Luxembourgish translation in Luxembourg is considerable: civil status, family reunification, European institutions and professional documents are the main areas of need.
The Turkish community in Luxembourg: a historical presence
Turkish immigration to Luxembourg dates back to the 1960s and 1970s, when the Luxembourg steel industry recruited heavily from Turkey. Unlike what happened in other European countries, a significant proportion of these workers and their descendants chose to stay, forming a well-integrated community deeply rooted in Luxembourg society.
The Turkish community is present across many municipalities, with concentrations in the Bonnevoie and Hollerich districts of Luxembourg City, as well as in industrial towns such as Esch-sur-Alzette and Dudelange. Turkish cultural associations, mosques and businesses testify to this lasting presence.
Furthermore, Luxembourg hosts several European institutions - the Court of Justice of the European Union, the European Court of Auditors : and a significant international financial sector, and Turkish documents are sometimes submitted in procedures involving these institutions.
