ANLux genealogy guidance covers civil registration, censuses, notarial records and fiscal sources. Start with municipality and event; parish registers follow a different route through diocesan archives.

Collections to search
Guidance describes birth, marriage and death records, ten-year indexes, censuses and notarial minutes. Arrangement and dates vary by series: check municipality, court or notary in the specific description.
A workflow for this portal
Record municipality, event and a short date interval. Use archives.services-publics.lu, locate the series and check index and full record. For reading-room orders follow registration and current description conditions.
Access and copies
The official announcement says the new portal replaced Query on 20 March 2026. Reading-room orders require registration; check access and reproduction at document level, not just collection level.

What you can research here
For a civil record identify municipality and first consult indexes where available. An index points to the register; it does not replace reading parents, witnesses and annotations in the full record.
Prepare a focused search
If the municipality is now outside Luxembourg check the repository indicated for that territory before declaring a gap. Keep a place record with names, event date and chosen holder; document uncertain identifications.
