Infograph: Pilgrim eVisa for Saudi Arabia

Millions of pilgrims reach Saudi Arabia each year. If 2.5 million Muslims visited Mecca in 2019 as part of the annual Hajj pilgrimage alone, many more travel to the Kingdom throughout the year to complete their Umrah journey.

To facilitate religious and leisure tourism, the Kingdom has recently introduced a new type of electronic visa (called Saudi Arabia eVisa) that can be obtained online in minutes from anywhere in the world.
