Hi, i am on 2 weeks Business Visa in Ireland. Now i am going back home to my home country India.?

Question

I am flying through Lufthansa to Franktfurt. Do i need a Transit Visa to change my flight?

Answer 1

I would get one just to be on the safe side !

Answer 2

Indian passport holders require a transit visa for Germany EXCEPT if you hold

-   a visa or other residence permit for a member country of the European Union or the European Economic Area you do not need an airport transit visa.

As you have a visa for Ireland you would be an exception.

You may want to call the German Embassy in Dublin to be on the safe side:
