What is the Umrah Visa Quota System?
The Umrah Visa Quota System is a strict policy by the Saudi Hajj Ministry to control the number of Umrah visas issued daily. This system is now impacting visa availability, processing times, and pricing more than ever before. Due to high demand, applications submitted late may face rejection, causing severe financial and logistical consequences.
The quota varies based on demand, seasonality, and government directives, meaning that last-minute applications are at extreme risk of non-issuance. This is a critical warning for all travel agents, B2B partners, and pilgrims: If you do not submit your applications before the 15th of Ramadan, there is a high chance that your Umrah Visa will not be issued.
Key Updates and Guidelines
1. Immediate Passport Submission is Required
🚨 DO NOT DELAY YOUR PASSPORT SUBMISSION. Due to quota limitations, visa processing is now highly restricted. If passports are not submitted immediately, visas may not be processed before the deadline. Do not wait—act now.
2. Visa Rates Fluctuate Daily—Do Not Assume a Fixed Cost
The cost of Umrah visas changes daily. Delaying your application may result in a sudden increase in visa prices. Ensure you confirm the current visa rate before proceeding, as last-minute applications may face surging costs or outright rejection.
3. Clear All Outstanding Dues and Naqaba Fines Immediately
Visa applications with pending dues or Naqaba fines WILL BE REJECTED. To avoid delays or cancellation, all financial obligations must be settled before submission.
4. Do Not Book Travel or Hotels Until Your Visa is Issued
Due to unpredictable processing times, do not make any flight or hotel bookings before securing your visa. If your visa is rejected, you will face significant financial losses on non-refundable bookings.
Severe Consequences for Late Applications
For Pilgrims:
- Visas are extremely limited per day. Late applications may result in missing your entire Umrah trip.
- Visa costs may spike at the last minute, making it unaffordable for many pilgrims.
- Processing delays could cause you to miss your scheduled travel dates.
For Travel Agents and B2B Partners:
- Visa quotas are filling rapidly. Agents who delay submissions risk disappointing their clients and damaging their reputations.
- Fluctuating visa prices can cause unexpected financial strain, leading to losses if costs exceed pre-quoted package rates.
- Failure to clear client Naqaba fines and dues will result in rejected applications, leaving customers stranded.
