Transit at Munich Airport (From Hong Kong to Dublin)

Transit at Munich Airport (From Hong Kong to Dublin) - Young ethnic man in earbuds listening to music while waiting for transport at contemporary subway station

I will travel from Hong Kong to Dublin via Munich. The two legs are both operated by Lufthansa (LH731 and LH2514). The booking came with one e-ticket number. I have confirmed with Lufthansa that my baggage will be checked through to Dublin. And I have the following questions:

  • Will I go through immigration and customs at Munich?
  • Will I have to leave the transit area of Munich Airport? (I ask this because if I have to leave the transit area, I have to apply for a visitor visa as I hold a Chinese (PRC) Passport.)
