Saudi authorities have introduced a multiple-entry Umrah visa valid for one year, allowing pilgrims to visit the kingdom multiple times for a total of up to 90 days, reports infohub.kz.
According to Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, the new visa is valid for 365 days and allows multiple entries, with total stay not exceeding 90 days. Before each trip, pilgrims must obtain an Umrah permit through the Nusuk platform and book hotel, transportation, and other services in advance.
It is important to note that the multiple-entry Umrah visa does not allow performing Umrah during the Hajj season. After reaching the 90-day limit, pilgrims will need to apply for a new visa for re-entry. The ministry emphasized that the new visa is a continuation of support for the pilgrim service system and a step in the development of services provided.
