The Up Luxembourg card can only be used in Luxembourg. Each country has its own legislation on extra-legal benefits. The granting of the Up Luxembourg card is subject to Luxembourg legislation.

How many meal vouchers can be distributed per employee ?

The number of meal vouchers awarded to an employee remains linked to the number of days actually worked. In practice, many employers allocate a fixed number of vouchers per month (generally 18 vouchers per month, 12 times a year, or 20 vouchers per month, 11 times a year).

In practice, and for reasons of administrative simplification, it has been agreed to allocate a fixed number of vouchers per month and per person, according to the following calculation:
52 weeks x 5 working days
= 260 working days
- 26 vacation days
- 11 public holidays
- 5 flat-rate days

= 218 luncheon vouchers per year
or 18 luncheon vouchers per month

What is the value of a meal voucher ?

The maximum deductible amount for meal vouchers is €15. It should be noted that the employer is free to adjust or not the amount of his contribution. The value of the meal voucher is always made up of a contribution from the employer and a contribution from the employee:
The employer's contribution is a maximum of €12.20.
The employee's contribution is at least €2.80.

The employer's contribution to the financing of the meal voucher does not give rise to taxation if the employee contributes €2.80 per meal voucher (unchanged from the previous legislation) and if the face value of the meal voucher does not exceed €15.00 (instead of €10.80 previously).

Are luncheon vouchers compulsory ?

In principle, meal vouchers are not compulsory, except under certain collective bargaining agreements. The value and conditions associated with meal vouchers are chosen by the employer. The conditions are set out in an industry or company collective agreement (CC), or in an individual employment contract.

In many companies, meal vouchers are allocated on the basis of the number of hours worked in relation to full-time work. This decision remains at the discretion of the employer.
