RIYADH, July 20, Saudi Arabia Breaking News — Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has introduced a multiple-entry Umrah visa valid for 365 days from its date of issuance, allowing holders to enter the Kingdom several times and remain for a cumulative maximum of 90 days.
Travellers must purchase a service package from an approved provider through the Nusuk platform for every visit. The duration of each package cannot exceed the number of days remaining under the visa’s cumulative allowance.
An Umrah permit must also be obtained through the Nusuk application before entering the Kingdom.
The visa will be deactivated following each departure and reactivated once the regulatory requirements for a subsequent visit have been fulfilled.
It will not be activated during the Hajj season, extending from the first day of Dhu Al-Qi’dah until the 13th day of Dhu Al-Hijjah.
The ministry said the new visa provides greater flexibility in planning Umrah visits while strengthening the integration of digital and operational services throughout the pilgrim journey.
The initiative supports Saudi Vision 2030 and the Pilgrim Experience Program, which seek to facilitate travel, improve service efficiency and enhance the experience of pilgrims visiting the Kingdom.
