Saudi Arabia has started issuing Umrah visas for the new season from May 31, following the conclusion of this year's Hajj pilgrimage. The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah said international pilgrims can now apply for visas and begin arriving in the Kingdom for Umrah, with the season running until March 23, 2027.
Pilgrims will be able to enter Makkah and obtain Umrah permits through the Nusuk platform, the Kingdom’s unified digital system for pilgrimage-related services, bookings and permits. Saudi authorities said the platform continues to play a central role in managing the growing number of pilgrims visiting the country.
