Hi there,

My wife wants to visit me in Canada. She has a Lebanese non machine readable passport. I know it's accepted by Canda since their website only states that passports from Czech are not accepted. Se would be coming here through Lufthansa, so through Germany. Germany only accepts machine readable passports, does it matter if she is going to Canada? Will they allow her to travel?

Thanks

This is better asked in a German immigration forum or with German immigration authorities.
