Although @realDonaldTrump could have given Chancellor Merkel more fanfare in this visit. She is not eligible for a "state visit" because the Chancellor is not the head of state.
I said "state visit" not dinner. The ceremony on the South Lawn is reserved for heads of state. "Official visit" is for heads of government like PMs

From memory both Brian Multoney and Justin Trudeau received the full ceremony on the lawn. They could’ve laid on any amount of ceremony they wanted for the chancellor of Germany. Whatever they call it.
