i how to get a umrah visa?
i am planning to go Umrah with my family but i want to book my ticket (flight) online because it is cheaper than a travel agent so do i have to get it from the embassy in london or what??? please tell in full explanation also i heared you cant book your own tickets is that right?why?
Thank you!
You do need to book your trip through a travel agent acknowledged in KSA like i.e.
http://www.eonetravel.co.uk/umrah_final.html to obtain a visa. (you’ll find more looking online) The Saudi Embassy doesn’t issue Umrah Visas.
Why? Guess it’s called "organisation" and it’s just not the Embassy’s job to issue visas to go on Pilgrimage. They have to take care of other things also:))
