🚨 IMPORTANT WARNING ‼️
🕋 Travelling to Saudi Arabia on a 1-Year Multiple Umrah Visa? Please Read This Carefully!
Those who have received a 1-year multiple-entry Umrah visa can normally perform Umrah multiple times during the visa validity period. Many pilgrims are travelling successfully with a complete package, Alhamdulillah.
However, ⚠️ problems may arise when you travel to Saudi Arabia for the 2nd or 3rd time without informing your travel agency and simply book a flight ticket on your own.
📌 A recent incident:
Yesterday, a passenger was stopped by immigration at Jeddah Airport while attempting to enter Saudi Arabia. Since the passenger was travelling without the required full package arrangements, he was reportedly kept in a separate room for around 4 hours.
Even after the necessary package information was updated, he was not allowed to enter immediately and had to wait for further processing.
❗ PLEASE BE CAREFUL
If you are planning to travel to Saudi Arabia for your 2nd, 3rd, or subsequent Umrah, make sure to contact your travel agency before travelling and confirm all required arrangements.
Before departure, make sure you have the necessary:
✈️ Confirmed Flight Ticket
🏨 Hotel BRN / Hotel Booking
🍽️ Food BRN / Meal Arrangement
📋 Other required Umrah and travel arrangements
⚠️ Do not assume that having a 1-year multiple Umrah visa automatically means you can simply purchase a flight ticket and enter Saudi Arabia without completing the required arrangements.
To avoid unnecessary delays, questioning, or inconvenience at immigration, always confirm your travel arrangements with your authorized Umrah agency before departure.
🕋 May Allah accept the Umrah of all pilgrims and grant everyone a safe and blessed journey. Ameen.
