- There are no tuition fees for any year group (Nursery, Primary, Secondary). Education at this institution operates as a Luxembourg public school and is provided without per‑term or per‑year tuition charges.

After‑school care (SEA) — fees, billing schedule and payment terms

- The after‑school care and activities service (SEA) is charged. Parents' financial contribution to SEA operating costs is calculated according to the Chèque‑Service Accueil (CSA) system and on the basis of the booked modules (attendance slots), lunches and any additional attendance. In the absence of a CSA contract, the maximum hourly rate set by the Ministry is invoiced.

- Invoicing for SEA is issued and the amounts due are payable on receipt of the invoice. Payment is by bank transfer to the account shown on the invoice (IBAN/BIC details for the Differdange and Esch/Alzette SEA accounts are printed on invoices). Non‑payment triggers reminders and possible garnishment procedures. Re‑billing (invoice correction) is possible under specified conditions. Repeated late pick‑ups after 19:00 are charged at EUR 15.00 per quarter‑hour. All cancellations or modifications that do not respect notification deadlines will be billed. Exemptions from billing include cancellations notified in writing at least one month in advance and certain illness notifications with medical certificate.

- SEA opening hours and registration/billing periods are defined by age group and by whether attendance is regular or occasional; reserved slots and reserved meals are billed according to the CSA rules. SEA may charge supplements for certain activities (excursions, camps) with separate registration and payment.

Boarding fees

- Boarding is not applicable. The École Internationale operates as a day school across its Differdange and Esch‑sur‑Alzette sites.

Other costs and routine school charges

- Textbooks for primary classes are provided by the school at the beginning of the school year; parents are responsible for the items on the school supply lists. Any specific extracurricular activities, excursions or projects may require additional parental contributions. School trips are an integral and compulsory part of the programme and may incur separate charges when applicable.

- Meals provided during SEA (lunches) are billed as part of SEA invoicing (booked meals are charged). For some activities or excursions, a separate supplementary fee may be requested and billed separately.

- No school uniform or boarding fee schedule is published for this school; routine parent costs therefore are typically limited to school supplies, optional extracurricular charges, trips and SEA participation where chosen or mandatory (lunch supervision/slots as described).

Fee payment options and practical payment details

In the event of non‑payment standard recovery procedures apply (reminder by registered letter then garnishment). The SEA participates in the CSA invoicing system, so parental contributions are calculated and invoiced via that mechanism. No public listing of credit‑card payment acceptance for school/SEA fees is published.

Summary (parent action points)

- No application or tuition charges exist for attendance at any year group. Budget for optional costs: SEA participation (if you use after‑school care or meals), school supplies, compulsory or extra school trips and occasional extracurricular supplements.

Boarding / internat fees (if applicable)

- Transport: organised school transport or dedicated shuttle services (where available) are managed according to the relevant transport providers or communal arrangements and may require payment when applicable.

No universal uniform or textbook fee applies as a school‑wide tuition charge.

Refund information

- There is no tuition to refund for standard enrolled pupils because EIMLB does not charge tuition. For itemised charges that parents may pay directly (for example, meal fees, activity fees or trip fees), refund terms depend on the specific service provider or the individual activity's published conditions; refunds for those items are handled according to the invoice or agreement governing that specific charge.

Fee payment options

- For the school's itemised charges where payment is required (meals, trips, activities, transport), payments are processed through the appropriate administrative channels (communal services, the school's administrative office or contracted providers). Typical methods used by communal/school services in Luxembourg include direct payment to the commune or school office (bank transfer or local administrative payment procedures) and any electronic payment methods the commune or provider supports. Specific accepted payment methods for a given charge are stated on that charge's invoice or in the administrative instructions for the service.

Summary statement (fees only)

- EIMLB is a public international school that does not impose application or tuition fees for enrolled pupils.

Application fees
- There are no application or registration fees for the École internationale Edward Steichen; enrollment in the public international sections is not subject to tuition or registration charges.

Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year group)
- There are no tuition fees for any year group (Early Education/maternelle, Primary, Secondary). No per-term or per-year tuition is charged.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Because the school does not charge tuition, there is no tuition billing schedule or term billing for enrollment.
- Optional paid services are billed by their respective operators according to those operators' schedules and terms (see the Canteen/Restopolis and the one2one iPad programme below for payment flows).

Boarding fees (internat)
- The school operates as a day school; there are no boarding (internat) facilities and therefore no boarding fees.

Other costs or fees
- School meals: The school cafeteria is run through the national Restopolis service. Meal prices vary by menu and by the tariff category; meals are paid via the school's digital canteen account system (myCard / Restopolis account) and are not part of tuition. Parents top up the canteen account and transactions are visible in the service.
- Textbooks: Textbooks for pupils in the public school system are provided under the myBooks scheme (free schoolbook lists are available via the ministry service). There is no per-year tuition charge for textbooks.
- one2one / iPad classes: The school runs iPad (one2one) classes; the one2one service documents cover the type of hardware provided and note that incidents (loss, damage, replacement) and any related invoices or rental arrangements are handled via the one2one procedures. Charges related to device rental, damage or replacement are handled separately from tuition.
- Extracurricular activities, school trips and specific materials: Certain optional activities, trips, workshops or external courses may require separate parent contributions or fees; such costs are charged on a case-by-case basis by the activity organiser or partner and are distinct from school tuition.
- After‑school care / Maison Relais: After‑school care on the Reuler campus is provided by the Maison Relais structure; charges for Maison Relais services follow the operators' local tariff rules and are billed separately from school tuition.

Refund information
- There are no tuition refunds because no tuition is charged. Refunds or credit adjustments for optional paid services (canteen account top-ups, Maison Relais fees, one2one device charges) are handled according to the rules of the service provider (Restopolis, the one2one programme, or the Maison Relais operator). Account histories and top-ups for the canteen are managed through the Restopolis system.

Fee payment options
- Canteen payments: paid via the Restopolis / myCard account system (digital top-up and electronic payment at the school restaurant).
- one2one / device charges and other service charges: billed and collected according to the operator's procedures (one2one programme or local provider); payment modalities (electronic invoice, bank transfer or account charging) follow those providers' terms.

Summary statement
- The École internationale Edward Steichen is a public day school with no application fees and no tuition charged for any year group. Optional paid services (meals, device programmes, after‑school care, extracurricular trips or materials) are billed separately by the relevant service operators and are paid through the operators' established systems (Restopolis/myCard for meals, one2one procedures for iPad classes, and local Maison Relais arrangements for after‑school care).
