Muslims can travel to Saudi Arabia at any time of the year to do the optional Umrah. ‘I’timaar,’ the word’s origin, denotes a visit. The phrase describes Muslim pilgrims who travel to the Holy Ka’ba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, to engage in Tawaaf. This means circling the Ka’ba seven times counterclockwise.
If you live in the United Kingdom and are a Muslim who desires to do the Umrah pilgrimage, you can apply right now for an e-Visa. Muslims may enter Saudi Arabia for religious reasons, but holders of an electronic visa are allowed to visit there for leisure. Millions of Muslims visit Saudi Arabia each year to do the Umrah.
You can travel to KSA for vacation or to do the Umrah pilgrimage with an e-Visa. All you need is a passport that is still valid to complete the application, which can take up to 15 minutes.
