face masks:
  • surgical masks
  • FFP2 masks (without valve).
  • N95 or KN95 masks (without walve)
Fabric masks are not permitted.
I wear a "fabric" face mask all the time in the U.S. Does this mean I have to purchase a mask compliant with the above noted rules to transit Germany? N95's are notoriously uncomfortable and I am fully vaccinated. I really hope my routine masks are okay.
Yes you have to get a surgical or FFP2 mask.
