Ministry clarifies rules for obtaining multiple Umrah visas in one year

The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has clarified its rules regarding multiple Umrah visas within a single year. Pilgrims are allowed to apply for a new Umrah visa even after their first visa has expired or is close to expiring. This clarification came following a question posed on the ministry's official X platform account. The original asker wanted to know if it was possible to obtain a second Umrah visa in the same year if the first one was fully utilized, which typically lasts up to 90 days.

The ministry confirmed that it is indeed possible to receive another Umrah visa if there are only a few days left on the current visa or if the permitted stay has ended. This announcement is part of the ministry's continuous efforts to clarify regulations and procedures surrounding Umrah visas and the allowed duration of stay.
