The Android 9.0 Pie Stable update with Samsung's Latest One UI is currently available in Germany for users to download. We don't know yet that whether you can use a VPN to change the location to Germany and get an update or not but we have reports of German bought units starting to get the update. The reported users claim that they haven't enrolled in the beta program, so we can confirm that the update is a stable update, not another beta update.
