Umrah Visa Valid For 1 Month Only 3 Months Rule Changed - KSA Travel Update | Arab Urdu News

The Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has announced a major change for all Umrah pilgrims. From now on, the Umrah visa will be valid for only one month instead of three months. According to the new rule, any Umrah visa unused after 30 days will automatically be cancelled. This means all travelers must enter Saudi Arabia within 30 days of visa issuance. The decision is part of Saudi Arabia’s efforts to regulate travel and ensure smooth management of pilgrims. However, this change affects many pilgrims from countries like Pakistan, India, Indonesia, and Egypt, who usually plan their Umrah trips months in advance. Another update — all types of Saudi visa holders (tourist, family visit, work, and transit) are now eligible to perform Umrah, making it easier for visitors already in the Kingdom to perform the pilgrimage. If you’re planning Umrah soon, make sure to confirm your visa issue date, plan your travel within the 30-day window, and avoid last-minute cancellations.
