Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah Says Over 190,000 Umrah Visas Issued Since Start of Season

The Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah announced on Monday that more than 190,000 Umrah visas have been issued to pilgrims from outside the Kingdom since the beginning of the Umrah season for 2025.

The ministry previously declared the official start of the Umrah season last month, with visa applications made available through the Nusuk platform. This marks a new phase in facilitating pilgrimage services, in line with the Kingdom’s ongoing efforts to enhance the pilgrim experience under Saudi Vision 2030.

The Nusuk app is the unified digital platform providing government services to pilgrims and visitors. The platform allows users to book and issue permits easily, in addition to offering a wide range of digital services to support and boost the Umrah experience.

The early surge in Umrah visa applications follows a highly successful Hajj season, characterized by streamlined procedures, improved performance, and upgraded technical infrastructure that ensured pilgrims had a smooth and safe spiritual journey.
