Saudi Arabia has introduced a one-year multiple-entry Umrah visa that allows eligible pilgrims to enter the Kingdom several times within a 12-month period, with a maximum cumulative stay of 90 days. The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah said the initiative is aimed at making Umrah travel more flexible while improving services for pilgrims as part of the Kingdom's Vision 2030 goals.
The new visa is valid for 365 days from the date of issuance and permits multiple entries into Saudi Arabia, subject to meeting regulatory requirements. The Ministry said the move is part of the Pilgrim Experience Program, which seeks to simplify travel procedures, improve the visitor experience and enhance service efficiency.
