Are there entry requirements for layover airports between the USA and SE Asia?

Accepted answer

Very few countries around the world require a visa for transit for a US citizen.

Specifically for the two you've asked about, Taipei (Taiwan) and Frankfurt (Germany), US citizens do not even require a visa in order to enter the country, let alone to transit.

You will need to pass through security in both countries, but that is all. You will not need any additional documentation other than what will be required for the trip in general (ie, a valid passport and a ticket to your destination)

US citizens may visit Taiwan for up to 90 days without a visa. Passports need to be valid during the entire visit.

US citizens may visit the Schengen States, of which Germany is part, for up to 90 days per 180-day period without a visa. Passports must remain valid for at least three months after departure; this rule also applies to airport transit.
