Exciting News for Pilgrims! Saudi Arabia Introduces New 1-Year Multiple-Entry Umrah Visa

3 min read July 21, 2026

For many, performing Umrah is a deeply cherished spiritual dream, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has just made fulfilling that dream easier and more flexible than ever before. If you have been waiting for the right moment to embark on your holy journey, there has never been a better time to start planning.

Saudi Arabia has officially launched a brand-new one-year, multiple-entry Umrah visa. This exciting development is part of the Kingdom’s broader Vision 2030 and Pilgrim Experience Program, aimed at enhancing the spiritual journey and offering unparalleled convenience to pilgrims from around the world.

Let’s dive into what this new visa means for you and how you can take advantage of it.

What You Need to Know About the New Umrah Visa

This updated visa structure provides tremendous flexibility, allowing you to tailor your spiritual journey according to your schedule. Here are the key details of the new multiple-entry Umrah visa:

  • 1-Year Validity: The visa is valid for an entire year from the date of issuance.
  • Multiple Entries Allowed: You are no longer restricted to a single visit. This visa allows you to enter the Kingdom multiple times throughout the year.
  • 90-Day Stay: During the one-year validity, you can stay in Saudi Arabia for a combined total of up to 90 days across all your visits.

How It Works: Essential Guidelines

While the new visa offers incredible flexibility, there are a few important guidelines to keep in mind to ensure a smooth journey:

  1. Service Package Requirement: Before each visit to the Kingdom, pilgrims are required to purchase a service package through an approved provider via the official Nusuk platform. The duration of this package cannot exceed the remaining days you have left on your 90-day allowance.
  2. Umrah Permit Required: Securing your visa is just the first step. You must also obtain an Umrah permit through the Nusuk application prior to arriving in Saudi Arabia.
  3. Automatic Deactivation/Reactivation: The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has stated that the visa will automatically deactivate upon your departure from Saudi Arabia. It will only reactivate once you have met the necessary regulations (like purchasing a new service package) for your next visit.
  4. Hajj Season Restriction: Please note that this multiple-entry visa will not be active during the Hajj season. Specifically, it will be unavailable from the 1st of Dhu Al-Qi’dah until the 13th of Dhu Al-Hijjah.
