Saudi Arabia will allow five countries to use e registration for Umrah visa, Saudi media has reported

 

According to the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, the countries are Britain, Tunisia, Kuwait, Bangladesh and Malaysia.

 

The decision aims to ease the entry procedures through the Kingdom’s ports and improve the digital experience for pilgrims.

 

In order to register their fingerprints, applicants must first download the ‘Saudi Visa Bio’ application on their smart phones.

 

They should then determine the type of visa, enter their passport information, take a picture of their face and match it with their personal photo on the passport, and then scan the fingerprints of all 10 fingers through the camera.
