We are at your service to make sure all the possible ease and comfort for your Umrah and Hajj journey. The following points have been summarized for your convenience. However, if you have any queries please feel free to give us a call at 020 8558 4848 or fill the query form below:

For Visa only, we need the following these days:

• Original Passport
• 2 Photographs with white background
• Biometric card (if visa is on card. Only for non-British passport holders)
• Return Flight Details
• Hotel Reservation Vouchers
• Proof of address in case of European passports
• Current Visa Fee (In Advance)

Prerequisites for Umrah Visa:

You cannot apply for Umrah visa on your own. An authorized Umrah agent is needed to apply for an Umrah visa for you, according to the Saudi government laws.

If you hold any type of visit visa in UK then you cannot apply for Umrah visa.

An original Umrah Visa application form needs to be completed with the terms and conditions carefully read and signed. You can have the application form from your travel agent via email or you may request the form from your nearest Saudi Consulate.

From the date of submission of the application form, your passport should be valid for a minimum of 7 months.

If a person has a non-Muslim name then a certificate is needed from a Mosque or a religious center, as a declaration of him/her being a Muslim.

Please note that Saudi government has imposed a fee of SR2000 on all umrah pilgrims, who have been to umrah in one Hijri year before. Please factor this cost in, if you meet this condition. It applies on both existing and new customers and is a government charge and not part of the visa fee as such.

2 recent passport size photograph with a white background is required to be attached with the application form. Make sure to face the camera while taking the photo because angled or side pose is not accepted.

A woman who is not of 45 years of age or older, is not allowed for Umrah without a mahram. However, the proof of the relationship with the male member is required with the application form.

A woman who is 45 years of age or older is allowed to travel for Umrah without a mahram but they must travel in a group and produce an NOC from their mahram. Contact us for more details. You can read more on mahram rules.

Children who are younger than 18 years will not be issued an Umrah visa unless they are accompanied by elder members of the family.

Meningococcal Meningitis vaccine certificate,for applying for Umrah Visa from UK, therefore, it is now mandatory that you take the jab at least ten days before departure.  Appointments are sometime difficult to set and keeping in mind the time constraints, you should book appointments well in time with your GP. There are pharmacies as well, across UK that administer the vaccine and issue an ACWY there and then. If you have been vaccinated any time within the last three years, you are exempt, if you can produce a certificate.

The validity of Umrah visa is 30 days but that does not mean you are allowed to stay there for 30 days. 14 is the maximum number of days (according to 2015 new rules) allowed in Saudi Arabia and you must return before this period expires. In the month of Ramadan, you are also not allowed to stay for longer than this period. However, the exact dynamics are that Umrah visa is issued for 30 days, within which, you have to travel. After your entry in Saudi, you need to exit within 15 days. To stay on the safe side, it is advised to keep the above periods to 28 days and 14 days. Please contact us for more information.

Umrah visa fees, bears cost for all first time pilgrims

Umrah visa fees, bears cost for all first time pilgrims

New amendments have been introduced to Umrah visa fees in Saudi Arabia, the country's cabinet of ministers has announced today. Most notably, the changes will see all visa fees completely waived off - and fully paid for by the Saudi government - for all first-time pilgrims coming for either Hajj or Umrah.

The newly introduced fee structure includes a single-entry visa that will cost travelers 2,000 Saudi Riyals ($533), applicable to all visitors, except first time pilgrims.

A six month multiple-entry visa will now cost 3,000 Saudi Riyals (SR), a one year multiple-entry visa will cost SR5000, while a two year multiple-entry visa will cost SR8000. The Saudi Cabinet has also made it clear that these changes will not impact any bilateral deals already signed by Saudi Arabia and other countries.

As for transit visas, their new fee is going to be SR300. Exit visa fee for anyone leaving the Kingdom through its seaports will be SR50. These revised fees will come into force from 2 October 2016.

Meanwhile, "exit and re-entry" visa fees for residents will be SR200 for a single trip for two months. SR100 will be charged for each additional month till the validity of residence permit (iqama).

Exit and reentry visa fee for multiple trips will be SR500 for three months. SR200 will be charged for each additional month till the validity of residence permit.

The new charges were announced during Monday’s weekly meeting of the Saudi Council of Ministers, which was chaired by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef who is also the kingdom's Interior Minister.

There were other decisions announced during the meeting, including new and revised fines for traffic violations.

7 Surprising Health Benefits Of Ramadan

Worried that fasting during Ramadan will have a detrimental impact on health? Find out why the month-long fast can have some surprising health benefits of Ramadan.

Although millions around the world have successfully observed the spiritual cleansing of Ramadan for more than a thousand years, some people fear that fasting over such a long period time will have detrimental effects on their health. If you’re one of those worries, then check out these seven health benefits you’ll enjoy during and after Ramadan.

 

Dates

Although three dates are eaten at the start of Iftar every day during Ramadan for spiritual reasons, they also come with the added bonus of multiple health benefits. One of the most important aspects of fasting is getting the right amount of energy, and considering an average serving of dates contains 31 grams (just over 1 oz) of carbohydrates, this is one of the perfect foods to give you a boost.

Dates are also a great way of getting some much-needed fiber which will aid and improve digestion throughout Ramadan. Add to that their high levels of potassium, magnesium and B vitamins, and it quickly becomes apparent that dates are one of the healthiest fruits out there.

 

Boost your brain

No doubt you’ll be aware of the positive effects fasting can have on your mental wellbeing and spiritual focus, but the brain-boosting powers of Ramadan are even more significant than you might think. A study carried out by scientists in the USA found that the mental focus achieved during Ramadan increases the level of a brain-derived neurotrophic factor, which causes the body to produce more brain cells, thus improving brain function.

Likewise, a distinct reduction in the amount of the hormone cortisol, produced by the adrenal gland, means that stress levels are greatly reduced both during and after Ramadan.

 

Ditch bad habits

Because you will be fasting during the day, Ramadan is the perfect time to ditch your bad habits for good. Vices such as smoking and sugary foods should not be indulged during Ramadan, and as you abstain from them your body will gradually acclimatize to their absence until your addiction is kicked for good.

It’s also much easier to quit habits when you do so in a group, which should be easy to find during Ramadan. Fasting’s ability to help you cut out bad habits is so significant that the UK’s National Health Service recommends it as the ideal time to ditch smoking.

 

Lower cholesterol

We all know that weight loss is one of the possible physical outcomes of fasting during Ramadan, but there’s also a whole host of healthy changes going on behind the scenes. A team of cardiologists in the UAE found that people observing Ramadan enjoy a positive effect on their lipid profile, which means there is a reduction of cholesterol in the blood.

Low cholesterol increases cardiovascular health, greatly reducing the risk of suffering from heart disease, a heart attack, or a stroke. What’s more, if you follow a healthy diet after Ramadan, this newly lowered cholesterol level should be easy to maintain.

Lasting appetite reduction

One of the main problems with extreme fad diets is that any weight loss is often quickly put back on, sometimes even with a little-added extra. This isn’t the case with Ramadan. The reduction in food consumed throughout fasting causes your stomach to gradually shrink, meaning you’ll need to eat less food to feel full.

If you want to get into the habit of healthy eating then Ramadan is a great time to start. When it’s finished your appetite will be lower than it was before, and you’ll be far less likely to overindulge with your eating.

Detoxify

As well as being great for spiritually cleansing yourself, Ramadan acts as a fantastic detox for your body. By not eating or drinking throughout the day your body will be offered the rare chance to detoxify your digestive system throughout the month.

When your body starts eating into fat reserves to create energy, it will also burn away any harmful toxins that might be present in fat deposits. This body cleanses will leave a healthy blank slate behind, and is the perfect stepping stone to a consistently healthy lifestyle.

Absorb more nutrients

By not eating throughout the day during Ramadan you’ll find that your metabolism becomes more efficient, meaning the amount of nutrients you absorb from food improves. This is because of an increase in a hormone called adiponectin, which is produced by a combination of fasting and eating late at night and allows your muscles to absorb more nutrients.

This will lead to health benefits all around the body, as various areas are able to better absorb and make use of the nutrients they need to function.
