Next month my fiance will be entering the US on our K1 visa. But before he enters he wants to go to Germany to visit a family member for a week then fly into Dallas. I'm thinking maybe this is OK but does anyone else know this answer before we book flights?

Should be no issue as long as he enters before the expiration of the K-1 entry date allowed.

 

He just needs to verify that he has the appropriate visa/documents needed to enter Germany on his Algerian passport. As for him flying then to the US from Germany, this is no issue at all.
