  • Persons who are not EU citizens and who have no long-term right of residence are not allowed to enter unless they have an urgent reason to do so. Entry for purposes of tourism is no longer allowed.
I just spoke with the German Bundespolizei and explained our situation. They confirmed your initial statement that this flight is a Schengen zone flight and therefore no border control would be done at FRA. They did not mention any checks at the gate however I see how that could be possible. As she is moving with me and plans to take up permanent residency in Germany I think the gate agent would allow it if they check (it is not for tourism).
