Saudi Arabia has launched a multiple-entry Umrah visa valid for 12 months from the date it’s issued. For UK pilgrims, that means you can now plan more than one Umrah trip within a single year on one visa, without reapplying every time. Here’s what UK pilgrims need to know and how Dar Al Eiman can help you plan it.
The new visa gives pilgrims a full year of validity under a single approval, with a few conditions worth understanding before you book.
For every separate visit, pilgrims must purchase an approved service package through the official Nusuk Platform.
This isn’t a visa everyone needs, but for the right traveller it removes a real amount of friction.
A 12-month visa still means a new service package and permit for every individual trip, and that’s where most of the admin actually sits. Dar Al Eiman manages that process for each visit, from the package requirement through to permit issuance and trip planning, so the visa’s flexibility doesn’t turn into extra work on your end.
Because the visa covers a full year, our customers can book multiple trips across that same period with our support, whether that’s a winter visit followed by one during the summer holidays or a few shorter trips spread across the year. We handle the coordination for each one individually, so you’re not starting from scratch every time you travel.
