Daniel Atz, Founder of LuxCitizenship

Daniel Atz founded LuxCitizenship after recovering Luxembourg citizenship in 2014. He obtained his dual citizenship through his great-grandmother Marguerite Kruchten from Esch-sur-Alzette who moved to Leavenworth, Kansas after World War I. Daniel is originally from Omaha, Nebraska. He holds a BA in International Studies from Loyola University Chicago and studied European Business Law while at the École Supérieure du Commerce Extérieur in Paris, France. Daniel is a fluent French, Portuguese, and Mandarin speaker and also speaks some Luxembourgish. Before LuxCitizenship, Daniel worked for the Belgian-American Chamber of Commerce (BelCham). There, he brought over 200 Belgian small businesses and startups to set up and grow in the United States. Daniel has been repeatedly featured on Luxembourg national television (RTL) for stories relating to his dual citizenship. In 2017, through a stroke of luck, Daniel’s long lost Luxembourgish family saw a TV program featuring Daniel holding a photo of his great-grandmother. RTL’s camera crews followed Daniel around as he met his long lost Luxembourgish family.
