Amman, July 20 (Petra) – Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah
launched on Monday a new multiple-entry Umrah visa, designed to give
international pilgrims greater flexibility.

Valid for 365 days from the date of issuance, the visa allows holders
to enter the country multiple times. Pilgrims can stay for a
cumulative total of up to 90 days throughout the visa’s validity
period, with each visit’s duration deducted from the overall 90-day
allowance.

To utilize the visa, travelers must purchase a service package from
an approved provider via the official Nusuk platform for every visit.
The duration of this package cannot exceed the remaining days left on
the visa’s 90-day balance.

Pilgrims must secure a valid Umrah permit through the Nusuk app prior
to arrival, ensuring the permit dates align perfectly with their
approved service package.

The visa is temporarily deactivated upon exiting Saudi and will be
reactivated for subsequent visits once all regulatory and travel
eligibility requirements are met, according to the ministry.

The visa cannot be used to enter Saudi Arabia during the Hajj season,
specifically from 1 Dhu’l-Qa’da to 13 Dhu’l-Hijja.
