Saudi Arabia launches new 'Nusuk Umrah' service to streamline visas, travel for international pilgrims

The Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah launched the Nusuk Umrah service on Wednesday, allowing international pilgrims to apply for Umrah visa and book services directly online.

Nusuk Umrah is a new option for international Umrah pilgrims, complementing existing channels like accredited agents.

The service allows users to customise their trip by choosing from integrated packages or booking individual services such as visas, accommodation, transportation, and tours.
