Luxembourg


Development of the law:

Smokefree legislation took effect on September 5, 2006. It has limited provisions. Smoking is banned in restaurants (although separate smoking rooms are permitted if they account for less than 25% of the total area) and cafés (with a ban in place during dining hours).

There is a total ban in schools, public buildings, buses and trains. In workplaces the employer is obliged to take all reasonable efforts to ensure that workers are protected from passive smoking, but this is a weak provision.
