Hello. I’m a US citizen, with a US passport. I am hoping to fly from California to Frankfurt via a connection in Washington DC i believe, this week. I recently got married(US marriage) to a German woman who is a German resident/citizen, and who is currently in Germany.
Seems like just last week, they were only allowing spouses with a D-visa, or resident permit to fly.
But now, according to most government sources I am asking and researching, non-German spouses are now allowed to travel into Germany, (auch ohne D-Visum) even without a D-visa, for spouse reunification, family reason, moving purposes, etc. I have an email from Bundespolizei advising me on this, i can copy-paste if needed. Also, United Airline is now listing under Germany exceptions "Husband, wife, child and registered partner of nationals or residents of Germany”. Again, without saying anything about a Visa.
I know things change everyday, and you guys aren't giving legal advice, but I am seeking your opinion. Under the current guidelines, what is your thoughts?
