Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on TelegramShare on WhatsApp

Saudi Arabian authorities have reopened the issuance of Umrah (lesser Hajj) visas to international pilgrims on Tuesday, June 10, 2025.

This is coming just a day after the successful conclusion of Hajj 2025, which was widely regarded as one of the most effectively managed pilgrimages in recent years.

According to the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, the first wave of international pilgrims is expected to arrive in Mecca and Medina as early as June 11, 2025.

The official reopening of Umrah visa services on June 10, 2025, marks the beginning of a new Umrah season. Unlike Hajj, which occurs during specific months, Umrah can be performed at any time throughout the year.

This flexibility makes Umrah an accessible pilgrimage for millions of Muslims globally, allowing them to undertake the journey to Mecca at their convenience. The current Umrah season will last through 2026, giving pilgrims ample opportunity to visit the holy cities of Mecca and Medina.

In a statement, the Minister of Hajj and Umrah, Dr. Tawfig bin Fawzan Al-Rabiah, described Hajj 2025 as not just an organizational achievement but a preview of what the future of pilgrimage could look like. His comments highlighted the many improvements made in managing the large crowds, ensuring a more seamless experience for pilgrims.
