Statute overview

About this statute

This provision is the preamble to the law on the European arrest warrant and surrender procedures between EU member states. This article says arrests and surrender of wanted persons between Luxembourg and other EU member states are handled under this law using a European arrest warrant. A European arrest warrant may be issued for offences punishable by at least 12 months’ imprisonment or security measure, or for sanctions of at least 4 months after a conviction or security measure. A European arrest warrant is refused if the underlying act is not an offence under Luxembourg law, except for tax, customs, and exchange matters, and certain listed offences can be executed without double-criminality review if the issuing state allows at least a 3-year maximum custodial penalty. Execution of a European arrest warrant must also be refused in three situations: where the underlying offence is covered by an amnesty in Luxembourg, where the person has already been finally judged for the same facts, or where the person was under sixteen when the facts occurred.
