Saudi: Pilgrims can book Umrah slots, issue permits online
Umrah pilgrims will be able to book their slots and issue permits online starting from July 30.
Pilgrims can issue Hajj permits on the Eatmarna app. They will also be able to book their slot based on the capacity of the Makkah Grand Mosque, through a color-coded system on the app.
Under the Kingdom’s health guidelines, permits will be cancelled if a pilgrim tests positive for COVID-19 or is proven to be a close contact of an infected person on the Tawakkalna app.
Pilgrims must wear masks inside the Grand Mosque in Makkah, leave the site by the end of their permit, and refrain from carrying unauthorized luggage inside the mosque.
