General terms of service
The contractual framework of our engagements: formation, prices, payment, liability, termination, and the rights specific to consumer clients.
Last revised:
1. Purpose and scope
These terms govern the services provided by Financial Services Luxembourg SARL-S, hereinafter the firm, to any natural or legal person entrusting it with an engagement, hereinafter the client.
They apply unless the engagement letter provides otherwise. In case of conflict, the engagement letter prevails over these terms, which themselves prevail over any document issued by the client, in particular its own purchasing terms, which the firm expressly excludes.
The firm's failure to invoke a clause does not amount to a waiver of its right to do so later.
2. Provider identification
Financial Services Luxembourg SARL-S, 142 Boulevard de la Pétrusse, L-2330 Luxembourg, Luxembourg. RCS B213987 · TVA LU29299810. Business permits 10077274/0 (accountant) and 10077274/2 (activities ancillary to the expert-comptable profession), issued by the Ministry of the Economy.
Contact: contact@financialservices.lu, +352 661 198 544.
3. Nature of the services
The firm acts as a licensed accountant. It keeps the books, prepares annual accounts and tax and social-security filings, supports company formation and corporate life, and provides related advisory services.
The firm performs no statutory audit engagement and issues no certification reserved to an approved statutory auditor. Where an engagement requires such an intervention, or that of a notary, a lawyer or a licensed domiciliation agent, the firm refers the client to the licensed professional, who contracts directly with the client.
Estimates produced by the site's simulators are indicative and constitute neither a quote nor an offer.
4. Formation of the contract
Every engagement is preceded by a written quote, then by an engagement letter signed by both parties. The contract is formed on the date of the last signature.
Prices shown on the site are indicative and exclusive of tax. They do not constitute an offer: they are there to give an order of magnitude before discussion. A discount announced as valid for a stated period runs from the delivery of the written quote.
Entering into a business relationship is subject to a complete due diligence file under anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist-financing legislation. The firm may not start any work before that file is complete, and this requirement is not negotiable, including for urgent matters.
5. Prices and revision
Fees are set either on a time-spent basis at the applicable hourly rate, or as a fixed price, or as a monthly retainer, as provided in the engagement letter. All amounts are exclusive of value added tax at the applicable Luxembourg rate.
Costs and disbursements incurred on the client's behalf, in particular registration duties, publication fees, notary fees and bank charges, are recharged at cost.
Rates may be revised once a year, with two months' written notice. A client refusing the revision may terminate the engagement within that period, without indemnity.
Work beyond the scope described in the engagement letter is subject to a supplementary quote accepted before performance.
6. Invoicing and payment
Invoices are payable within thirty days of the invoice date, unless stated otherwise on the invoice or in the engagement letter.
Between professionals, late payment automatically triggers, without formal notice, late-payment interest at the rate set by the amended law of 18 April 2004 on payment periods and late-payment interest, together with a fixed indemnity of EUR 40 for recovery costs, without prejudice to compensation for costs actually incurred.
The firm may request a joint and several fee guarantee where the company is newly incorporated with no banking history, where the director resides outside the European Union, or after a payment incident. Its amount is capped at the annual retainer and it is released after twelve months of regular payment.
Where non-payment persists after a formal notice has remained without effect for fifteen days, the firm may suspend its services, having informed the client in writing. Suspension does not relieve it of the obligations imposed on it by law in respect of ongoing files.
7. Client obligations
- Provide in good time all documents, information and supporting evidence required, and answer the firm's requests within the stated deadlines.
- Warrant the accuracy, good faith and completeness of the information provided. The firm works on the basis of the material supplied and has no general duty to verify its truthfulness.
- Report without delay any change of shareholding, activity, director or beneficial owner.
- Comply with the statutory deadlines for which the client remains responsible, in particular filing of annual accounts and periodic returns.
- Appoint a single contact authorised to approve the work.
8. The firm's obligations and liability
The firm owes a duty of best efforts. It performs its engagements with the diligence, competence and independence expected of a professional in its field.
Its liability may only be engaged for proven fault and is limited to direct and foreseeable damage. Indirect damage is excluded, in particular loss of profit, loss of opportunity, commercial prejudice and reputational harm.
Save for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, compensation owed by the firm in respect of an engagement is capped at the fees excluding tax actually received for that engagement over the twelve months preceding the triggering event.
The firm is not liable for the consequences of inaccurate or incomplete information provided by the client, nor for delay caused by late delivery of documents, nor for decisions taken by the client against the firm's written advice.
Any claim must be made in writing within three months of discovering the facts on which it is based.
9. Duration, termination and file handover
Recurring engagements are entered into for one year, renewable by tacit renewal, and may be terminated by either party on three months' written notice before the annual expiry.
Either party may terminate without notice for a serious breach by the other not remedied within thirty days of a written formal notice. The firm may also end the relationship where anti-money-laundering legislation requires or permits it.
At the end of the engagement, the firm returns the documents belonging to the client within a reasonable time, subject to payment of fees due. It retains copies of the documents it is legally required to keep.
10. Consumer clients: right of withdrawal
This section applies only to a client acting for purposes outside their trade, business or profession, and where the contract is concluded at a distance or off premises.
Such a client has fourteen calendar days to withdraw without giving reasons and without bearing costs other than those set out below. The period runs from the day the contract is concluded.
To exercise this right, it is enough to send an unambiguous statement before the period expires, by email to contact@financialservices.lu or by post to 142 Boulevard de la Pétrusse, L-2330 Luxembourg, Luxembourg. The model form reproduced below may be used, but is not compulsory.
If the client expressly requests that performance begin before the end of the withdrawal period, they remain liable for an amount proportionate to what has been supplied up to their withdrawal. Where the service has been fully performed during the period, at the client's express request and after the client has acknowledged losing the right of withdrawal once the service is fully performed, that right can no longer be exercised.
The firm refunds the sums received, reduced where applicable by the proportionate amount above, no later than fourteen days after being informed of the withdrawal, using the same means of payment as the client.

I hereby give notice of my withdrawal from the contract for the following service: [nature of the service]. Ordered on: [date]. Consumer's name: [name]. Consumer's address: [address]. Signature (only if this form is notified on paper). Date: [date].
11. Complaints and mediation
Any complaint is to be sent in writing to contact@financialservices.lu. The firm acknowledges receipt within five working days and answers on the merits within one month.
Failing a satisfactory solution, a consumer client may refer the matter free of charge to the Luxembourg national consumer mediation service (mediateurconsommation.lu), within one year of their written complaint.
12. Confidentiality and professional secrecy
The firm is bound by professional secrecy under the conditions set by law. It discloses no information about the client, save with the client's agreement, under a legal or regulatory obligation, or at the request of an authorised authority.
Anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist-financing legislation imposes reporting obligations on the firm which professional secrecy does not override and of which it may not inform the client.
The client undertakes not to disclose the methods, tools and document templates provided by the firm.
13. Intellectual property
Templates, tools, methodologies and deliverables designed by the firm remain its property. The client receives an internal, non-exclusive and non-transferable right of use for the purposes of its own operations.
Accounting and tax documents prepared on the client's behalf belong to the client.
14. Personal data
The processing of personal data is described in our privacy policy, which forms an integral part of these terms.
15. Force majeure
Neither party is liable for a failure caused by an event beyond its reasonable control which it could not avoid. The affected party informs the other without delay. If the impediment lasts more than sixty days, either party may terminate without indemnity.
16. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by Luxembourg law.
Any dispute falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the City of Luxembourg. This clause does not deprive a consumer client of the right to bring proceedings before the court of their domicile where European rules on jurisdiction so provide.
17. Severability and amendment
If a provision is held void or unenforceable, the others remain in force and the excluded provision is replaced by one of equivalent economic effect.
The firm may amend these terms. The applicable version is the one in force on the date the engagement letter is signed. Version of 2026-09-15.
