Sources, definitions, and the complete historical record
- Measured relationship
- Luxembourg residents arriving in the United States. National arrival events, not unique people, citizenship counts, or city visits.
- Source and release
- NTTO I-94 Country of Residence · NDS presentation V1.0.1 · Frozen monthly release through August 2026; annual source through 2025.
- What the changes mean
- Long-view and reference-year changes are calculated by NDS from the unchanged source values. They are separate from source-published YoY records. Full years compare with full years; January–August compares with January–August. A zero baseline has no calculated percentage change.
- Names and geography
- Website name: Luxembourg · Source label: Luxembourg. The source navigation code matches the existing country key. Historical source definitions and country boundaries can change; a name link does not adjust that history.
- Rankings and conclusions
- Any rank shown is the stored NDS arrivals-volume rank, with its original period and denominator. It is not an official NTTO rank or a commercial-diplomacy score. Travel activity can guide research; it does not attribute visits or sales to a chamber, trade mission, or Sister City agreement.

CSV downloads retain the original monthly and annual arrivals, raw values, source statuses, and record coordinates. The full JSON also includes stored year-to-date records, volume rankings, and source notes. Missing records are not filled with zero. NDS release validation is not government endorsement.

Physical connections help make international opportunity practical. Airports and ports show gateways to investigate. Road and rail links help explain how goods and people can reach a business, a meeting, or a community beyond the gateway.

What connects the gateway to your destination?
Road: Who can handle pickup, delivery, border crossings, and the last mile?
Rail: Is there a freight or passenger connection that fits the route and timing?
Transfers: Where will goods change hands? Who handles customs, storage, insurance, and follow-up?
These route questions help turn infrastructure evidence into a costed plan. This source package does not contain road or rail network measurements.

Can people and businesses take part in the AI economy? Explore the conditions for tools, skills, new ideas, and responsible use. Then ask what a useful local partnership would need.
Four weighted contributions form the overall measure. Each available value below keeps the source’s scale. They are contributions to AIPI, rather than four percentage scores. A missing total stays missing even when some contributions are available.

0.2222How will partners handle data, contracts, and accountability?
All contribution bars use the same 0–1 scale. Display values are rounded to four decimals; the original full-precision values and source text are retained.
What could you do with this context?
Start with a business need. You might need a training partner, a digital supplier, a research team, or someone who can explain the market’s rules. These are NDS planning questions, not opportunities proven by an index value.
A preparedness value describes conditions in a country. To decide whether to do business, also check customers, costs, industry evidence, and people who can help you follow through.
The U.S. companion covers business survey evidence. It does not describe AI use in this country.

What does Luxembourg
buy from abroad?
Start with import demand. Add economic growth and price changes to put that market size in context.
Make the national picture useful. Goods imports show the market’s purchases from abroad. Check the product categories, buyers, and rules that matter to what you sell. Service imports cover commercial services and can help frame a question about cross-border work.
See the calculation for Luxembourg
| Component | Input | Percentile | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Import demand | $141.41B | 73.83 | 50% |
| Economic growth | 0.36% | 10.74 | 25% |
| Price stability | 2.05% | 71.81 | 25% |
Import demand adds goods and commercial service imports. Price stability ranks the negative absolute CPI change, so smaller price changes score higher. All four observations must be present. Missing inputs: None.
Weights are NDS choices: demand 50%, growth 25%, price stability 25%. This national screen helps you plan research; it does not identify qualified buyers or attribute trade to a diplomatic relationship.
