Permits, visa terms and travel guidance
Sources checked October 19, 2026. Official rules can change. This guide does not determine eligibility or guarantee approval.
Three separate checks
Three checks. One better prepared journey.
A visa, a permit and permission to enter serve different purposes. Keep all three in view.
Your visa route
The official tourist eVisa allows Umrah, excluding Hajj. Check eligibility and your visa conditions. The eVisa terms require at least six months of passport validity at entry; check the rule for your exact route.
Your permit or appointment
Follow the current Nusuk instructions for Umrah permits and Rawdah appointments. Do not treat a visa or package booking as proof that every permit is arranged.
Your arrival and stay
Check the entry conditions, permitted stay and dates on your actual visa. A visa’s validity period and the length of each permitted stay are not the same thing.
Planning near Hajj? Check current seasonal restrictions before paying for travel. A tourist visa is not a Hajj visa or Hajj permit.

Before you continue
A few things worth clearing up.
Can every U.S. resident get the same Saudi visa?
No. Living in the United States does not by itself decide eligibility. Check the traveler’s passport and circumstances against current official requirements.
Does KaabaSharif issue or approve visas?
No. KaabaSharif helps travelers describe their needs and compare agency quote options. Saudi authorities decide visa and entry matters. Confirm any agency visa service in writing.
Does completing this checklist mean I can travel?
No. It is a personal review reminder. It does not check your documents, establish eligibility or confirm any visa, permit or entry decision.
Will my visa help choice appear in Journey Planner?
Yes, when you choose a preference and continue using the button on this page. You can change it there. No passport details or agency contact consent are transferred.
