For a German company name/address change requiring notarised signatures, can a non-resident director sign remotely instead of travelling to Germany?

Yes. If a director cannot sign in person at the German notary, the notary can forward the documents to a notary in the director's own location (if they are within Germany) or, if the director is outside Germany, to the relevant consulate in the director's country, where the director attends to sign.

In a company change such as director removal, does the person being removed need an e-signature?

No. A director who is being removed and who does not need to sign any documents during the change process does not require an e-signature, since they will not be signing anything now or in the future. Only signatories who must actually sign documents need an active e-signature.
