@@maxamillion200able Wasalam yes you can use your own email. Any issues, let us know and we can do it for you by filling in this form: muslimsgotravel.com/umrah-e-visa-waiver-evw-support-form/
I can not tell you how helpful your video has been. It's saved me over £300. I will be praying for you and your family when performing umrah. Please make more videos like this.
Thank you so much Juber. The video was really excellent and it showed me exactly what to do. I have had considerable trouble obtaining a Saudi Visa and despite five emails to MOFA they did not help. I am more grateful than you will know; my wife and I were becoming worried as the travel date got closer. Graham
salaam bro,EVW how advance can i apply for this and i'm flying with qatar airlines via doha, is that and can do umrah with and can you registered with nusuk,
JAZAK ALLH KHARYAN I SPENT HOURS LOST TRYIG TO FILL THIS IN, YOUR VIDEO STEP BY STEP IS SO HELPFUL, MAY ALLAH REWARD YOU FOR MAKING THINGS EASIER ...THANK YOU SO MUCH
Brother May Allah bless you with all that you ask for and more then you want. I followed your advice and Alhumdulillah the website is a bit flaky but I managed to get visa for all my family. Jzk bro.
@@Taab1578 I did not make a new account, I used the same account went back logged in again after first application. It showed me the first application, I then pressed the button to apply for new visa waiver. The occupation list is no longer like the video, they must have updated it since this video. It is now free text field you can write what you want. I chose to tick the box of not employed for the children which meant that I did not have to put occupation down. Also for the children they will ask you application number for the dependent adult (you) this number is on the bottom of your visa waiver it says application number. You have to provide this for your children so they can link it. I hope this helps.
@JuberAhmedTravel brother do you know if we still need travel insurance and if our global travel insurance provided by bank would be acceptable or is it mandatory to use travel insurance offered by Saudi government offering. jazak Allah
Assalamualaykum, I used the brothers service to do my sons visa, I have to say the service was 10/10. The brother definitely knows his stuff, I was having alot of difficulty with navigating the site and he made it into a simple, affordable and very fast service. May Allah reward you
Assalam-o-Alaikum brother How did you apply for your sons waiver visa Because I am having trouble apply for my sons visa What did you choose for job title For your sons waiver visa Please explain? Thank you
Alhamdulillah my fathers tourist visa and evw visa failed and said go to embassy and we lost money. Contacted this brother filled out a form and visa was accepted within an hour or thereabouts. Payment was asked for after as well for peace of mind.
Salaam. Jazak Allah hayir for this video. I have just successfully completed the visa form. It arrived as soon as I made payment. To all those who are struggling with the form, fill the form on desktop rather than mobile phone. I just took a pix using my phone, I didn't reduce the size. I was struggling with the upload yesterday but Alhamdulillah it uploaded straight away today. So if you are struggling with the form, keep on trying, don't give up. You will get there eventually. I think if you take a bit longer to fill in the form you will have to refresh it and enter all details again, otherwise it won't work.
Salam brother or sister. I received my visa back but the arrival date either wrong or Saudi format. I will be arriving to Saudi on the 12.10.2023. But they have put 10.12.2023. Is yours like this. Jhazak Allah for any help in advance.
@droidhacking Salaam I didn't do children's visas. However on tripadvisor someone said put down any occupation for children as this won't be shown on visa certificate.
Jazakallahkhayr brother. When you say free visa that impies zero cost to many viewers. I think a reduced cost EVV application is a more suitable title. I got confused as somene alse advises it was around £35.
Alhumdulillah this video is a life saver. May Allah bless you brother. A few points to take into consideration. I applied for myself and my 2 sons. - as said in the video, register individually for each person - If have kids, apply yours first, then use another email for kids. In the kids one when they ask for dependent reference, its on the e-visa right at the bottom (dont include the “E”
Jazak Allah brother. This is the bit I was stuck on, I couldnt see the depedent reference until you menitoned it and spent all day trying to fix it. May Allah reward you!
Paid £44, got the visa within 24hrs. This brother is 101% genuine & took away the hassle from me. I don't have much time and patience when it comes to online forms, especially when it's the first time & when it needs to be done correctly. Leave it to this brother. He'll not let you down.

For the photo I took selfie with white wallpaper background. Which was 4 megabytes. Then. I took a screenshot of it, to reduce it too 400kb. Then I cropped it. My face looks squashed but it's been accepted 👍 it doesn't need to be exact dimensions of passport photo, but try to make is similar by cropping, you get rough idea as you play About with it

Akhi , I got BRP, it is like refugee leave to remain, and I got uk travel documents it is like passport but it’s not proper British passport,only travel document, My question is can I go to Saudi Arabia for Umra through this travel document? Brother please reply me jazakAllah
Slam, Sorry if you did cover this in the vid and I missed it but can you answer if I need to make an account for each family membwr who is going for Umrah or can I do it with one acc? Also, under the occupation drop down there was purpose of visit block - what do we put there tourism? Thanks & apologies in advance 🙏😊
Wasalam brother No worries at all. So actually you can process all evisas under one account. No need to make a new account. I actually found this out later. Also, yes, you put tourism as Umrah falls under tourism. Hope that helps inshaAllah
You can purchase medical cover/insurance via any comparison site or one that I recommend is Southdown Insurance. Affordable and easy to do and good coverage.
Hi, Could you please confirm, as I'm a pakistani, international student in London uk, i don't think, as a international student we can get this E-visa waiver, so if you have any knowledge which else visa type should be more cheaper and allowed for me. Thanks in advance.
I have visited more than 5 countries in 2023 and more than 5 countries in 2022, I cannot possibly list all the countries I visited. The form only allows 5 entries. Will that be OK?
Salaam, when I try to apply via the electronic application, it does not give me an option to select Umrah as the purpose of the visit, only tourism. Is tourism ok to select? alternatively when I select add a new application, it allows me to select Umrah as a reason for visit but only costs $10.50 which is less than what is show in the video and also doesn't require a scan of our passports. Is this the wrong way to do the application ?
@@Rabinamunir Wasalam - umrah falls under tourism. It’s how 1000s have done their applications and have been for umrah. Also, don’t do the application that way. That is not the correct way when it costs $10.50
Asslam-O-Alaikum, Dear brother what do you select in Occupation * when filling out the form for a child as there is no option for child, student, baby or unemployed? JazakMullah
Wasalam The only workaround right now and what most people have been doing is putting their own job title. Have had many many people doing this and it’s not an issue and what’s more, the job title is not printed on the evisa anyways.
Salaam, Just a quick question brother. Can you get the evisa waiver if you’re going from eg UK to Jeddah for (Umrah) and then Qatar and then going back to Jeddah (connecting flight) to go back to the UK. So a Multi trip. Which includes multiple flights but just one trip
Wasalam - you can of course but the evisa waiver is single entry so for example, on this trip you can use it on the way to Qatar in your stop in Jeddah for Umrah, but then on way back if its just connecting flight and you are not exiting the airport in Jeddah, then its fine. However, if on way back if you leave Jeddah airport again, you will need another evisa waiver.
Salam brother. I have applied for visa and it says it's been successfully issued and sent to your email.but I didn't receive it just realised that I put the wrong email address. Would you help please to solve this issue. Jizak Allah
Wasalam brother Don't worry about this. You can retrieve your visa using the following link: visa.mofa.gov.sa/visaservices/searchvisa If its all in arabic, just click on the 'E' icon on the top. Also, log back in to your application portal and write down your evisa number as it may ask for this when you try retrieve your evisa.
Jizak Allah brother..may Allah bless you for this help.. secondly I am applying for my baby but I can't see any dependant reference option there now in the form.
Hello brother! Thank you so much for all the information. I have got a tourist e visa and I’m planning to perform Umrah next month too. But when I was booking through Nusuk app it says I’ll need Meningitis vaccination but some people said I don’t need the vaccine with tourist e visa. Could you please confirm if we need the vaccine with tourist e visa to perform umrah ?
Jzk brother. We are British nationals but will be going for umrah from India after a holiday there. Wold we put India as departure country in the evw application? Jzk
Salaam, when I try to fill in my occupation it say's 'The results could not be uploaded' regardless of whethee I type in Teacher, doctor etc. What could most likely be the issue?
Wasalam - this could be because you have been on the page for a while perhaps? I would refresh and try again. Any issues, we can now process the visas for you so you don't have to go through the hassle yourself: muslimsgotravel.com/umrah-e-visa-waiver-evw-support-form/
Dear Friends and Loved Ones, I want to share an important message with you all. I've recently faced travel bans imposed by governments around the world. While I understand the reasons behind these decisions, I'm approaching this situation with a sense of hope and determination. I believe in the power of change, growth, and new beginnings. Instead of dwelling on the past, I'm focused on making positive changes in my life. I'm seeking your support and prayers as I work towards self-improvement and personal growth. Please join me in making dua, in asking Allah for His guidance and blessings. I aspire to return to the Makkah
Thank you so much for this useful post. Can a British Citizen travel to Saudia Arabia to perform Umrah from a different country (for example from either India, Pakistan or Bangladesh with their Non-British family member) after getting the E-Visa ?
No worries glad it was useful :) Yes that is fine as long as you are a British citizen and have a British passport. The non-british family member will of course have their own visa arrangements.
@@JuberAhmedTravelJazakaAllah for your prompt reply. Really appreciate. Will start the process tonight. Aiming to perform Umrah at the end of this month if Allah(swt) wills inshaAllah
My parents are going umrah in Octpber, we have relatives in Saudi..Can I provide their address when applying for visa? As they say booking hotel from here (saudi) is cheaper so we'll book it a day before
Salam brother, I am applying visa for my 1 year old son. What occupation should I select as without selection any occupation its not allowing me to complete the application. Please advise
W/S bhai, Plz select same occupation as you mentioned in your application or you can select anything related to your work, most important passport number & child name in the application.
Brother I'm applying for my 2 years old son, I don't have any application number just a visa number which they issued when I made my visa waiver application payment but its not accepting it, I'm really confused please advise
bro just write down your visa number into son application and please try with any debit or credit card, Please try different bank cards coz sometimes online payments freeze some cards.
Wasalam so yes you can definitely get Uber to hotel from both Jeddah airport to Makkah and from Madinah airport to Masjid Nabawi and also from both cities too. If you land in Jeddah though, I highly recommend taking the high speed train. It goes non-stop and seven times a day from Jeddah airport terminal to Makkah and takes 47 minutes. Tickets can be bought two weeks in advance on sar.hhr.sa (if you search for later dates the search results are empty).
@@JuberAhmedTravel so there was complications with booking tickets and my bro and family will need to go madinah first from Jeddah. We looked into the fast train but won't work for their budget. Do you know the going price for Jeddah to Madinah by cab for 4 people?
Has anybody done this for an infant? What do you put under occupation since it’s a mandatory field? Mine keeps saying error message “Main Visitor application is not valid or not paid” and I can’t figure out what’s wrong! Help!
Is there anyone who applied and did not receive an email despite it saying 'visa issued with the code xxxx and confirmation has been sent to your email' ? I've checked spams too but theres nothing and Im really worried
Sorry for the late reply. You can actually go onto the website visa.mofa.gov.sa/visaservices/searchvisa and use the Visa code you were given to retrieve a PDF copy.
جَزَاكَ ٱللَّٰهُ خَيْرًا Just completed the form, with ease, thanks to your video - visa came through almost instantly. Do you know if there are any other requirements for entry? Vaccinations or medical/travel insurance etc?
Ameen no worries at all :) *Vaccinations* 5. As for vaccinations, no covid vaccinations are required Alhamdulillāh which is on the GOV website. I’ve heard from quite a few people that they have been reading that meningitis is necessary but I can confirm that this isn’t necessary. We’ve never been asked and have even been informed by others that it’s not necessary. It’s totally one’s choice though. *Medical Insurance* Medical insurance is not included with this evisa waiver. You can get away with not having medical insurance, but if you do need the medical services there, then there will be costs. Ambulance services are usually free. If you do want to get medical cover and insurance, you can buy it from the following site or you can use any comparison website or your own bank if you have cover with them: www.southdownsinsurance.co.uk/?Communications&Email&Purchase%2BConfirmation
Asalaamualaikum. Quick question. What if I haven't yet booked the hotels but still would like to apply for evw. Could I put in any random hotel? As in the vid it had an asterisk next to it.
I believe so - but to be on the safe side, book your hotel and then apply for the e-visa. It comes through almost instantly so you shouldn’t have any issues. (Brother Juber may be able to advise better).
Just to ask if anyone know, do we need to buy health insurance separately too . If ues then is it essential? Or voluntary choice. I’m travelling next month , if possible answer before
Sorry brother this is only for British nationals. For BRP, its a different process. Please check this website: www.visitsaudi.com/en/travel-regulations
Wasalam The process is exactly the same but when for him, it will ask for a dependants passport number and application number which will be your passport number and your application number which should be at the bottom of your evisa waiver once you have applied for it and it has been processed and sent to you. Hope that makes sense. For job title, as nothing comes up such as baby, kid, child, student, unemployed etc, the workaround right now is to just put your job title for your son.
Salaam Alaykum brother. I am want to get 96 hour visa and use the time doing umrah and visit Medinah IA How do I do the visa I’m not able to find it. Any advise would be greatly appreciated
Hi @JuberAhmedTravel, I have very long forename (from passport) starting with Mohammed xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxx, what fields should I use as it does not fit the character limit for the first name..
is anybody noticed any problems with the website? when I save it keeps coming up with error message. There is a new website, but the ewaiver visa doesn't seem to be on it for us to apply. So it only allows me to apply for visit visa on that one. Travelling in March.
My son EVW has come back as sent to embassy status...the rest of family have received the visa ....what is meaning on sent to embassy status been a few days with no reason given
Salam brother, does the e visa waiver include the medical insurance or is that something I need to buy separately? If it is included, is there a separate document for the insurance? I only have the e visa waiver pdf.
Wasalam No it does not. You will need to buy separately. Someone used the ambulance when they got there for free, but when the Saudi ambulance checked their visa number for the evisa waiver, they saw that medical insurance was not included. Check the below out for insurance: www.southdownsinsurance.co.uk/?Communications&Email&Purchase%2BConfirmation
Whats the sketch with the meningitis vaccine? Is it needed or not. Many people are saying it's not needed but the gov.uk website states that it is mandatory.
In the part where it asks about visits to other countries do we have to say them all? I’ve been to occupied palestine (I don’t wanna say the name) and on gov website it says Saudi denies you entry if you have been to that country
Wasalam So no this does not include medical insurance. However you can purchase this yourself which I’ll provide a link for which has been recommended by a reputable UK-based travel agent. I will mention though that you can get away with not getting medical insurance, but if you do need the medical services there, then there will be costs. Ambulance services are usually free. If you do want to get insurance, you can buy it from the following site: www.southdownsinsurance.co.uk/?Communications&Email&Purchase%
Salam, I used this for umrah last week and it worked perfectly Alhamdulilah. I now would like to visit Saudi Arabia again in the near future. Would you know if I will be able to reapply for another EVW or must I wait a certain amount of time, or have to use a different type of visa for the next time? Many thanks.
Finally, the picture of myself - it mentions 'in uniform' what does that mean? The copy of my passport - is that the first 2 pages of the passport? JazakAllah for your help and a brilliant video bai
@JuberAhmedTravel I just spoke to someone at VisitSaudi and they said to apply for the visa, you don't need it but to enter the country, you do need one. Is there anywhere that you know where it's written on their website that we don't need it?
@@JuberAhmedTravel I'm back here just to confirm that i was not asked for any meningitis certificate or health insurance. I went in late Nov - December 2024.
ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ ٱللَّٰهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ We filled in the evisa forms for our family alhamdullilah 7 out of 8 of our visas have been accepted. My husbands visa was filled in the same way as everyone elses . Payment went through, but it's saying 'send to embassy'... we tried calling the embassy in london several times and even emailed them. They haven’t got back to us , so we're not sure what to do. We fly in less than a month from this date. Any advice will be greatly appreciated thank you جزاك الله خيرًا
Salaam, I have the same issue - can you please tell me what you did or share any information? I've emailed them and I saw from another post the embassy doesn't help. Jzk
@SajjadAli-vd7cg وَعَلَيْكُمُ ٱلسَّلَامُ وَرَحْمَةُ ٱللَّهِ وَبَرَكاتُهُ We did it 3 times or so, and it was still unsuccessful. Sometimes, this can happen without a reason, unfortunately. In the end, my husband got his visa at the airport upon arrival to Jeddah. It cost arounsd £100 but was valid for a whole year. He got his refund back from the other attempts of the e-visa. I think he must have emailed them or something for the refund. Hopefully inshaaAllah you get your refund and if it's not working, I'd stop trying and just get it upon arrival. InshaaAllah all goes well
If a family going for umrah has already got the tourist visa's but one memeber has been rejected can they apply for this visa or will it cause any issues because its a different visa from the rest?
Asalamualaykum. I have applied for tourism visa but probably should have gone for an EVW as its cheaper. I cannot cancel my tourism visa now but trying to find out if i can amend it.
Unfortunately it doesn’t let you go back. It’s one of the biggest gripes I have with the form. I had to restart if I made a mistake when doing peoples forms

Sorry if you did cover this in the vid and I missed it but can you answer if I need to make an account for each family membwr who is going for Umrah or can I do it with one acc?
Also, under the occupation drop down there was purpose of visit block - what do we put there tourism?
Thanks & apologies in advance 🙏😊
Wasalam brother
No worries at all. So actually you can process all evisas under one account. No need to make a new account. I actually found this out later. Also, yes, you put tourism as Umrah falls under tourism. Hope that helps inshaAllah
Finally all done after a dozen attempts for my sons visa. Alhumdulilah.
Please tell little more how filled you children form
Im having issues completing my sons visas as it keep saying to put dependant application number but when put the number it doesn’t work - please help?
Yes i needed to ask the same
Please could you let us know asap as we will be travelling soon
Yes please help, mine keeps saying visa fee not paid
JazakaAllah kheer.. What about medical coverage in case of an emergency?
You can purchase medical cover/insurance via any comparison site or one that I recommend is Southdown Insurance. Affordable and easy to do and good coverage.
Good work brother, very useful info.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi,
Could you please confirm, as I'm a pakistani, international student in London uk,
i don't think, as a international student we can get this E-visa waiver,
so if you have any knowledge which else visa type should be more cheaper and allowed for me.
Thanks in advance.
I have visited more than 5 countries in 2023 and more than 5 countries in 2022, I cannot possibly list all the countries I visited. The form only allows 5 entries. Will that be OK?
Just put 5 entries. It’s fine not to worry about. This part is not a big deal
JazakAllah khair brother for sharing
Thanks, Top G, helping Muslim ☪️ umah fight 💪 the matrix 😎.
I can't apply for a child. How do I apply for the child? What additional things the child needs to add?

Is medical insurance required for umrah ???
Thanks
That’s what I’m trying to find out. Any luck?
Did you manage to find out?
Better to get the tourist visa on arrival, rather than paying around half for a one time entry you can go multiple times by paying slightly more.
Unless you only go once a year :)
Salaam, when I try to apply via the electronic application, it does not give me an option to select Umrah as the purpose of the visit, only tourism. Is tourism ok to select? alternatively when I select add a new application, it allows me to select Umrah as a reason for visit but only costs $10.50 which is less than what is show in the video and also doesn't require a scan of our passports. Is this the wrong way to do the application ?
@@Rabinamunir Wasalam - umrah falls under tourism. It’s how 1000s have done their applications and have been for umrah. Also, don’t do the application that way. That is not the correct way when it costs $10.50
Any tips on best and cheap hotels in Makkah & Madina for parents going for the first time
@@AbaSuleiman stay in the tip of Aziziyah like near the Elaf Bakkah Hotel and just take a bus to haram. Much easier and much cheaper
Asslam-O-Alaikum, Dear brother what do you select in Occupation * when filling out the form for a child as there is no option for child, student, baby or unemployed? JazakMullah
Wasalam
The only workaround right now and what most people have been doing is putting their own job title. Have had many many people doing this and it’s not an issue and what’s more, the job title is not printed on the evisa anyways.
Salaam, Just a quick question brother. Can you get the evisa waiver if you’re going from eg UK to Jeddah for (Umrah) and then Qatar and then going back to Jeddah (connecting flight) to go back to the UK. So a Multi trip. Which includes multiple flights but just one trip
Wasalam - you can of course but the evisa waiver is single entry so for example, on this trip you can use it on the way to Qatar in your stop in Jeddah for Umrah, but then on way back if its just connecting flight and you are not exiting the airport in Jeddah, then its fine. However, if on way back if you leave Jeddah airport again, you will need another evisa waiver.
JazakAllah for this brother. May Allah SWT accept your efforts.
Salam brother. I have applied for visa and it says it's been successfully issued and sent to your email.but I didn't receive it just realised that I put the wrong email address.
Would you help please to solve this issue.
Jizak Allah
Wasalam brother
Don't worry about this. You can retrieve your visa using the following link:
visa.mofa.gov.sa/visaservices/searchvisa
If its all in arabic, just click on the 'E' icon on the top. Also, log back in to your application portal and write down your evisa number as it may ask for this when you try retrieve your evisa.
Jizak Allah brother..may Allah bless you for this help.. secondly I am applying for my baby but I can't see any dependant reference option there now in the form.
Hello brother! Thank you so much for all the information. I have got a tourist e visa and I’m planning to perform Umrah next month too. But when I was booking through Nusuk app it says I’ll need Meningitis vaccination but some people said I don’t need the vaccine with tourist e visa. Could you please confirm if we need the vaccine with tourist e visa to perform umrah ?
you dont. i came recently and they didnt require it
Alsalaam alykom. what would I fill a child's occupation as please? Jazak Allah
Wasalam
Put your own or any other adults job title that is also travelling. It’s the only workaround
Jzk brother. We are British nationals but will be going for umrah from India after a holiday there. Wold we put India as departure country in the evw application?
Jzk
yes the country you're leaving from to saudi
Thank you brother ❤
JazakAllah for the video but the website is AWFUL!!! full of glitches
True it does have its fair share of issues - we can process visas for you now. Link in description :)
Salaam, when I try to fill in my occupation it say's 'The results could not be uploaded' regardless of whethee I type in Teacher, doctor etc. What could most likely be the issue?
Wasalam - this could be because you have been on the page for a while perhaps? I would refresh and try again. Any issues, we can now process the visas for you so you don't have to go through the hassle yourself: muslimsgotravel.com/umrah-e-visa-waiver-evw-support-form/

Dear Friends and Loved Ones,
I want to share an important message with you all. I've recently faced travel bans imposed by governments around the world. While I understand the reasons behind these decisions, I'm approaching this situation with a sense of hope and determination.
I believe in the power of change, growth, and new beginnings. Instead of dwelling on the past, I'm focused on making positive changes in my life. I'm seeking your support and prayers as I work towards self-improvement and personal growth.
Please join me in making dua, in asking Allah for His guidance and blessings. I aspire to return to the Makkah
Thank you so much for this useful post.
Can a British Citizen travel to Saudia Arabia to perform Umrah from a different country (for example from either India, Pakistan or Bangladesh with their Non-British family member) after getting the E-Visa ?
No worries glad it was useful :)
Yes that is fine as long as you are a British citizen and have a British passport. The non-british family member will of course have their own visa arrangements.
@@JuberAhmedTravelJazakaAllah for your prompt reply. Really appreciate. Will start the process tonight. Aiming to perform Umrah at the end of this month if Allah(swt) wills inshaAllah
Can you buy zamzam from jeddah airport with this visa. In a previous video you mentioned you can only buy with umrah visa

I have applied my visa and daughter 1 year old, Got the visa straight away after payment. thanks for this video
Salam brother,
I am applying visa for my 1 year old son. What occupation should I select as without selection any occupation its not allowing me to complete the application.
Please advise
W/S bhai, Plz select same occupation as you mentioned in your application or you can select anything related to your work, most important passport number & child name in the application.
Plz apply 1st your visa then your son visa and mention the your application No & your passport number as well in the child application as a dependant
Brother I'm applying for my 2 years old son, I don't have any application number just a visa number which they issued when I made my visa waiver application payment but its not accepting it, I'm really confused please advise
bro just write down your visa number into son application and please try with any debit or credit card, Please try different bank cards coz sometimes online payments freeze some cards.
Salaam bro. Can we get Uber from airport to hotel? Does uber also doing long trips, Madinah to Makkah?
Wasalam so yes you can definitely get Uber to hotel from both Jeddah airport to Makkah and from Madinah airport to Masjid Nabawi and also from both cities too. If you land in Jeddah though, I highly recommend taking the high speed train.
It goes non-stop and seven times a day from Jeddah airport terminal to Makkah and takes 47 minutes. Tickets can be bought two weeks in advance on sar.hhr.sa (if you search for later dates the search results are empty).
@@JuberAhmedTravel so there was complications with booking tickets and my bro and family will need to go madinah first from Jeddah. We looked into the fast train but won't work for their budget.
Do you know the going price for Jeddah to Madinah by cab for 4 people?
@@droidhackingbrother
From madinah to makkah or jeddah
I just travelled with someone and they charged 600 for a car

Its standard cost i think
Is that from Jeddah airport?

جَزَاكَ ٱللَّٰهُ خَيْرًا
Just completed the form, with ease, thanks to your video - visa came through almost instantly.
Do you know if there are any other requirements for entry? Vaccinations or medical/travel insurance etc?
Ameen no worries at all :)
*Vaccinations*
5. As for vaccinations, no covid vaccinations are required Alhamdulillāh which is on the GOV website. I’ve heard from quite a few people that they have been reading that meningitis is necessary but I can confirm that this isn’t necessary. We’ve never been asked and have even been informed by others that it’s not necessary. It’s totally one’s choice though.
*Medical Insurance*
Medical insurance is not included with this evisa waiver. You can get away with not having medical insurance, but if you do need the medical services there, then there will be costs. Ambulance services are usually free. If you do want to get medical cover and insurance, you can buy it from the following site or you can use any comparison website or your own bank if you have cover with them:
www.southdownsinsurance.co.uk/?Communications&Email&Purchase%2BConfirmation
بارك الله فيك
Will remember you in my duas during my Umrah. May Allah accept.
Asalaamualaikum. Quick question. What if I haven't yet booked the hotels but still would like to apply for evw. Could I put in any random hotel? As in the vid it had an asterisk next to it.
I believe so - but to be on the safe side, book your hotel and then apply for the e-visa. It comes through almost instantly so you shouldn’t have any issues. (Brother Juber may be able to advise better).
Just to ask if anyone know, do we need to buy health insurance separately too . If ues then is it essential? Or voluntary choice. I’m travelling next month , if possible answer before
Many have been without. If you do want to buy, please check comparison sites.
Jazakallah kairan for this video, have tried severally but when I get to save it disappears and takes me back to the page. Any advice pls
Could you please post video for saudi Arabia visa for 2year uk brp holders. Need to do umrah

Salaam brother how do I apply visa for my 5 year old son visa?
Thank you
Can u please make a video
Wasalam
The process is exactly the same but when for him, it will ask for a dependants passport number and application number which will be your passport number and your application number which should be at the bottom of your evisa waiver once you have applied for it and it has been processed and sent to you. Hope that makes sense. For job title, as nothing comes up such as baby, kid, child, student, unemployed etc, the workaround right now is to just put your job title for your son.
Salaam Alaykum brother. I am want to get 96 hour visa and use the time doing umrah and visit Medinah IA
How do I do the visa I’m not able to find it. Any advise would be greatly appreciated
Salaam brother I have paid for the visa but I check the application on the visa it says send to embassy what does that mean?

Please can you share what you did?
Hi @JuberAhmedTravel,
I have very long forename (from passport) starting with Mohammed xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxx, what fields should I use as it does not fit the character limit for the first name..
is anybody noticed any problems with the website? when I save it keeps coming up with error message. There is a new website, but the ewaiver visa doesn't seem to be on it for us to apply. So it only allows me to apply for visit visa on that one. Travelling in March.
My son EVW has come back as sent to embassy status...the rest of family have received the visa ....what is meaning on sent to embassy status been a few days with no reason given
Apply with us - we can defo put it through - muslimsgotravel.com/umrah-e-visa-waiver-evw-support-form/

There is none I tried for three weeks gave up in the end but best of luck
Salam bro thank u for the information! But it doesn't seem to be working for the children?
Do you require health insurance in order to the enter the KSA? Because this option does provide you an option purchase health insurance
Salam brother, does the e visa waiver include the medical insurance or is that something I need to buy separately? If it is included, is there a separate document for the insurance? I only have the e visa waiver pdf.
salam this is what i would also like to know
Wasalam
No it does not. You will need to buy separately. Someone used the ambulance when they got there for free, but when the Saudi ambulance checked their visa number for the evisa waiver, they saw that medical insurance was not included. Check the below out for insurance:

So no this does not include medical insurance. However you can purchase this yourself which I’ll provide a link for which has been recommended by a reputable UK-based travel agent.
I will mention though that you can get away with not getting medical insurance, but if you do need the medical services there, then there will be costs. Ambulance services are usually free. If you do want to get insurance, you can buy it from the following site:

Would you know if I will be able to reapply for another EVW or must I wait a certain amount of time, or have to use a different type of visa for the next time? Many thanks.
Finally, the picture of myself - it mentions 'in uniform' what does that mean? The copy of my passport - is that the first 2 pages of the passport?

We did it 3 times or so, and it was still unsuccessful. Sometimes, this can happen without a reason, unfortunately.
In the end, my husband got his visa at the airport upon arrival to Jeddah. It cost arounsd £100 but was valid for a whole year.
He got his refund back from the other attempts of the e-visa. I think he must have emailed them or something for the refund. Hopefully inshaaAllah you get your refund and if it's not working, I'd stop trying and just get it upon arrival. InshaaAllah all goes well
Hi what if youndont want to book hotel or younwant to book one when you get there can you put arondom one in
Yes you can put any hotel name and address. And random job. You will get evw email straight away once you have done payment
If a family going for umrah has already got the tourist visa's but one memeber has been rejected can they apply for this visa or will it cause any issues because its a different visa from the rest?
Asalamualaykum. I have applied for tourism visa but probably should have gone for an EVW as its cheaper. I cannot cancel my tourism visa now but trying to find out if i can amend it.
I am confused. You still have to pay. The title says you don't have to pay but you do. I went in November and had to use the third option.
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته.
I need to ask you if I apply for a visa, know, and I'll be planning to go in June. Do I lose 2 months of my visa
Also brother, the form does not let you go back to edit anything? or does it? I wanted to edit something before making the payment, is that possible?
Unfortunately it doesn’t let you go back. It’s one of the biggest gripes I have with the form. I had to restart if I made a mistake when doing peoples forms
I've filled the form in and pressed save, but it didn't
