Government. Days from Chamber election to the new government being sworn in: 2013 (20 Oct) Bettel I on 4 Dec 2013 (45), 2018 (14 Oct) Bettel II on 5 Dec 2018 (52), 2023 (8 Oct) Frieden on 17 Nov 2023 (40; gouvernement.lu press release of 17 Nov 2023). The 2013 and 2018 dates are from Wikipedia, not yet checked against gouvernement.lu. earliestUtc is an estimate (first sitting of the new Chamber), not a legal floor. A government market needs a deadline beyond the longest precedent. Not before . Precedents: 45 and 52 and 40 days from polling day.

Stage windows and their sources 4 stages, each cited
  1. Election-night count
    →
    precedent
    Polls close at 14:00 CEST (loi électorale art. 73; postal ballots must reach the polling station before 14:00). Communes' results are published live as they come in by the government's Bureau centralisateur (art. 116ter) on elections.public.lu; they are 'résultats officieux', not the official result. Precedent: the 2023 unofficial-results page shows '739 bureaux sur 739 (100%) ont transmis les résultats complets', the last commune listed as complete at 22h57 CEST on 8 Oct 2023, about 9 h after polls closed (elections.public.lu/fr/elections-legislatives/2023/resultats.html, checked 25 Sep 2026). The window closes at 06:00 CEST Monday, about 7 h past that precedent. The official results are separate documents on a separate page (see final-result), so this page is not overwritten.
  2. Final result
    →
    precedent
    The official result is each of the four constituency main offices' general count (recensement général), seat allocation and public proclamation of the elected members (loi électorale arts. 155-163); no statutory deadline for it was found. The count opens the day after the election (art. 155: returns collected 'à midi'). 2023 precedent, from the four procès-verbaux on elections.public.lu/fr/elections-legislatives/2023/resultats-officiels.html (read 25 Sep 2026): Est began Mon 9 Oct 2023 at 10:00 and was signed 13 Oct; Centre closed 13 Oct; Nord sat from 17 Oct and was signed that day; Sud sat from 20 Oct 08:00 and was signed 20 Oct 2023 (day 12). The window opens at 10:00 CEST Monday 9 Oct 2028 (the 2023 Est start) and closes at the end of Monday 23 Oct 2028, CEST: day 15, three days past the 2023 Sud proclamation, and the eve of the new Chamber's statutory first sitting (24 Oct), which needs the results to verify credentials. Erring late on purpose. The PDFs' file metadata suggest they were posted around 23 Oct 2023; that is not an authority statement.
  3. Court validation
    →
    announced
    Not a court in the first instance: the Chamber alone rules on the validity of the elections (loi électorale art. 118) and 'se réunit en séance publique de plein droit le troisième mardi suivant la date des élections pour vérifier les pouvoirs de ses membres' (Constitution art. 67(1)): Tuesday 24 Oct 2028 (third Tuesday after Sunday 8 Oct: 10, 17, 24 Oct). Precedent: on 24 Oct 2023 the plenary opened at 14:30 and the credentials committee met at 14:45; 46 deputies were sworn in the same day after verification, the 14 elected members of the outgoing government having their credentials verified in committee and taking the oath later (chd.lu/en/premiere_seance_2023_2028). The opening time (14:00 CEST) is an estimate from that precedent; the window closes at the end of Friday 27 Oct 2028, CEST, to allow for verification spread over several sittings. Art. 67(3) opens an appeal to the Constitutional Court 'contre ces décisions'; whether it covers credential verification under art. 67(1) as well as loss of mandate under 67(2) is not settled here, and no such appeal is modelled.
  4. Government formed
    → —
    estimate
    Constitution art. 88: the Grand Duke appoints the Prime Minister and the other members of the government; art. 93(1): the new government engages its responsibility on presenting its programme to the Chamber. No statutory deadline for coalition talks. ESTIMATE: the window opens with the new Chamber's first sitting on 24 Oct 2028, as the new government answers to the new Chamber; in 2023 the government was sworn in on 17 Nov 2023 (gouvernement.lu, 'Assermentation des membres du gouvernement 2023'), after that sitting. See the government block.
