Traveling to the USA separate from my German husband...can he still get in?

Please make sure he carries a copy of your wedding certificate and probably a copy of your passport. We ran into problems with my Swedish wife when we were boarding the plane in Zurich (layover airport). It ended up being a mad scramble to get someone to our house so we could prove we were married.

According to the relevant Presidential Proclamation:

(a) Section 1 of this proclamation shall not apply to:

(…)

(iii) any noncitizen who is the spouse of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident;

There is no condition of residence or simultaneous travel.

Your husband will still require an ESTA (or other visa), and should have the required paperwork. Not sure exactly what paperwork, though, but I suppose some kind of proof of marriage + a copy of your US passport should do.

Note that I believe you will both need a recent negative PCR test even if fully vaccinated.
