Frequently asked questions
Can you perform Umrah without an agency?
You can register on Nusuk yourself, but going through an ONPO-licensed agency is the standard, recommended route. Check the agency is on the official ONPO list before any deposit.
How much is the Umrah visa?
The official Nusuk fee is about 300 SAR (~€75). The agency package (flight, hotel, transport) is additional and varies by season.
When is the best time for Umrah?
Ramadan carries the greatest reward but is peak season (pricier, limited places). Outside Ramadan — June, July, September, October — is quieter and more affordable.
How many days does Umrah take?
The Umrah rites take a few hours; the trip usually lasts 10 to 15 days depending on the package (often longer in Ramadan). Your agency sets the exact length.
Can a woman perform Umrah without a mahram?
Yes — provided she is 18+ and travels within an organized group / package via a licensed agency.
Which vaccines are required?
The meningitis (ACWY) vaccine is mandatory for Umrah and Hajj; present the international certificate. Other recommendations may apply.
What passport validity is needed for Umrah?
Your passport must be valid at least 6 months beyond your return date. Also prepare a copy and compliant ID photos.
How does the Nusuk platform work?
Nusuk is the official Saudi platform that issues the Umrah visa and books accommodation (Nusuk/Masar). The licensed agency usually handles the whole Nusuk process for you.
How long does the Umrah visa take?
The Umrah visa via Nusuk is usually issued within a few days once the agency submits a complete file. Allow a margin, especially in Ramadan.
How do I check an Umrah agency is licensed?
Check it appears on the official ONPO list (602 agencies for 2026). Never pay a deposit to an agency that isn't on the list — that's your first protection against scams.
What's the difference between Umrah and Hajj?
Umrah can be performed almost year-round; Hajj has fixed dates and a national quota (ONPO, often by draw).
