Will a Transit visa suffice if I have to switch terminals at Frankfurt Airport on my way to Canada? I have a valid Canadian work permit so that shouldn’t be an issue. However, my airline told me that I have to re-check in my baggage at Frankfurt which means exiting the international area.

I’m flying from Doha (Qatar) to Halifax (Canada) with one stop at Frankfurt.

[https://doha.diplo.de/qa-en/service/visa/schengenvisa/-/2582612](https://doha.diplo.de/qa-en/service/visa/schengenvisa/-/2582612) The German embassy suggests I may need to get a C-Visa if I’m switching terminals or exiting the International area to collect my baggage and then re-check in to the next flight to Canada. Please advice thanks!
