Salam Everyone - I’ve noticed that people have been facing issues filling in the form as it can be quite fiddly and there are still some question marks on how to fill it in. Therefore, I have set up a service to process the visas for you. Click on the following link to find out: 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.

You've given a perfectly detailed summary. Jazakallah Khair!
JazākAllāhu Khairan for watching ❤
@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
@@ahsanhoney123 what you entered as occupation for your son? did you put your own occupation there. Did you need medical insurance?
Alhamdulillah I used the EVW and it worked perfectly fine and I was able to bring back ZamZam, I arrived back home from Umrah today🙏
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,
Do you need travel insurance with EVM?
did they check for your travel insurance or did you skip this?
No they don’t check for travel insurance as that’s down to you, I had mine through the bank though

Good work brother, very useful info.

JajakAllah brother
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. Alhamdulillah
May Allah swt reward you . Ameen
JazakAllah Khair for using our services brother. It was a pleasure helping you and thanks very much for the kind words ❤❤❤
Jazakallah o khiran brother for the video ❤ please make more videos similar topics
The video helped me a lot, been to Humrah Allhamdurrah 🤲💚❤️🤍🖤jazkallah o Kiran
Thanks fof for the video. I'm already in Saudi since 4 months ago and I was terrified thinking I've broke my EVW visa overstaying! Thought it's only 90 days & valid for 180 days but when i checked few other sources it clearly says on the visa 180 days duration stay. So I'm still within the allowed time frame.
thank you brother
You're welcome!
Jazakallak khair visa done
JazakhAllah very helpful video. Just a quick question. My wife is an Italian national. Just to clarift would she just need to get the normal tourist visa?
Very informative
Mashallah keep up the great work nice video ❤
Jazakallah
Jazzakallah khair for the video!!!! this video helped so much.Pls confirm the format used on the arrival date for the visa, is it DD/MM like normal or MM/DD
I also have this question, did you manage to get an answer or perform umrah successfully ?
quick question, after completing the form, how long it takes visa to be issued? is it instand like umra visa of one year, or some manual checking is involved there?
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.
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
Wa Alaykum Salam
Alhamdulillah really happy to hear this :)
I hope you have a blessed trip inshaAllah 😊😊
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
@@hm....9742 what you entered as occupation for your son? did you put your own occupation there
@@JuberAhmedTravelsalaam brother, if i fly out on 6th but arrive to jeddah 7th, do i put 7th as date of entry into ksa?
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
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
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
Wa alaikum assalam wa rahmatouLLAHI TAALA wa barakatouHOU
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.
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.
Jazakallah
I have a question, my current visa expires 30th Oct, but I want to go 13th Nov.
Should I wait for it to expire before re-applying? Or can I apply before this? Jzk!
Do you require health insurance in order to the enter the KSA? Because this option does provide you an option purchase health insurance
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.
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 Brother and Jazak Allah for all this information, can you please advice if with this type of visa i can bring zamzam back with me ?
Wasalam - yes you can bring back zamzam if flying back from Madinah airport. From Jeddah airport the rules keep changing so you will have to try.
I got a question and I hope you would be able to help me with it please. The section that says put in your current passport and your previous passport can you just put one instead of putting two because the person hold both European and British passport ?
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
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
what format is your arrival date? MM?DD?YY or DD/MM/YY
@@userunknown-lb8qw
Mm dd yy
Its says picture 'in uniform' what does that mean brother?
Also copy of the passport - is that the inside 2 pages?
Finally - I have visited so many countries over the last 5 years but the form only allows 5 entries, shall I just put the last 5 trips? will this matter? thanks
The answer I was looking for, thanks brother.
I can’t get pass the occupation bit I keep searching everything but nothing comes up in the drop down
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.
Thanks for the clear Instructions. Unable to add countries travelled to in the last 5 years. However, if I answer no then it allows me to progress to the next page,which is "pay".please can anyone advise,thanks.
You can leave it blank and if asked at airport you can just tell them.
الحمدلله
Thank you for the video..does the fee of $41 include insurance? If not then is insurance compulsory?
No unfortunately it does not. Whilst it states that it is, many have been without insurance.
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.
jazak Allah for sharing this amazing news. I am travelling with family next month insha Allah and this news came right in time.
I have worldwide travel insurance through my bank. Would it be sufficient to carry travel insurance certificate which covers my family or do we need to get travel insurance via Saudi official website? jazak Allah khair
Just check with your bank, I checked and mine covers Saudi
what does your arivall date say? what format? is it like the British one
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.
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!
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 :)
Contrary to the issue, only the United Kingdom is appearing, no other country's name is being shown, so is this only for the United Kingdom? Please reply
HI THERE, I HAVE FILLED IN THE FORM, BUT WHEN FILLING IN MY CHILDS FORM IT KEEPS ASKING ME TO FILL IN A ARABIC NAME. BUT MY KEYBOARD DOES NOT TYPE IN THAT SECTION. HOW CAN YOU HELP WITH THIS?
Salaam
I got the visa Alhamdulillah but cannot get registered on the nusuk app. Keeps on showing error, try again later, frustrating, if you have any advice please share
JazakaAllah khair
When can you go on umrah after hajj season ? I heard 2 weeks after is ok!? What do you think brother
Jazakallah
Any idea from personal experience for UK nationals non resident in UK? Can they apply as well and if yes what do we enter in UK address and country applying from. Please answer from experience
jzk for the video.
I having issues with the passport photo, whats the most efficient way to take a photo that will work with the visa?
ignore this comment, I got the visa approved, jzk for the vid again.
Medical insurance fee is not included with this visa price where other 2 Visa included. Can I get an separate halal Umrah travel & health insurance provider details please as I am interested to go for EVW .
Also when othere 2 visa mentioned about Umrah but EVW not saying clearly about Umrah which is confusing.
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
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
Salam bro thank u for the information! But it doesn't seem to be working for the children?
salam, please can you advise? I have completed eVisaWaiver for myself, my partner on the above site online, however can you advise if i am able to do apply for an eVisaWaiver for my 3 year old? Please clarify?
My next question is, im in the process of completing an eVisaWaiver for my elderly mother also, however she has medicines that i must declare as per the guidance for the visa however, the following link for more information on medicine drugs cant be found once i click on the link. I really need help on this, please advise? thanks
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
Salaam bro. Can we get Uber from airport to hotel? Does uber also doing long trips, Madinah to Makkah?
There s free bus Jeddah airport to Haram Kaabah. For umrah people
Last bus from Jeddah airport is 10pm that I know off
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!
what you entered as occupation for your son? did you put your own occupation there
@@shamzeela yes. Same occupation for children as yourself
@@sheharyardar262 Thanks for replying please can you also let me know do i need any insurance?
@@shamzeela no you dont need insurance and they dont check. But if you want it then its your choice.
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.
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
Salam, PLEASE REPLY 😇
I am brp holder in uk because I am on graduate visa i need to know that would I am eligible to apply for this fee waiver visa…?
It's not clear if insurance is still mandatory and if so, how you get it. Some reports mentioned after obtaining the visa (waiver) you can go back into the account and purchase the insurance this is not true based on the application I made. I also don't think the insurance is included in the application fee of £30 as it is not mentioned or at least not clear. Can anyone clarify?
I’m also wondering the same thing! Hopefully someone has the answer 😊
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.
Asalam alaikum, I am having problems with the section about duration of stay and nothing comes up when I press on that bit hence why it won’t let me go to the next section
Wasalam - give it a few seconds to load and it should come up
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
I can't apply for a child. How do I apply for the child? What additional things the child needs to add?
I'v got my visa, do I have to buy health insurance seperately ? thanks in advance.
Salaam, I made an mistake on my form (name part) and it has been submitted is there anyway of changing it
Thanks for the help bro but I have one problem here I’m trying to fill my kids age under 8 but somehow keep rejecting me any idea please let me know if can help many thanks
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
Jazak Allah Khair brother, does the £30/£35 fees include travel insurance which is required?
I think £35 we pay that is for insurance
@@shahidpatel34 thank you
Why do you think it is included?
What if you’ve lived in the UK for many years but don’t have a German passport, will it work?
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?
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.
I was trying to send it to you but i am facing issue. I dnt get any link to upload picture.
Hi, Ive tried to do it but apparently I need to put where Ive travelled the past 5 years? I have travelled to so many countries so how am i supposed to even fill in the form? Feel like they added this at the end on purpose to be honest....
Just put a few and if they do ask, you can tell them the rest. It honestly does not really matter.
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 I please ask what is the timeline for receiving the e-visa if applied through the mofa website? We are aiming to fly to KSA on 28th December. Not sure if we should apply online or just pay for the visa at the airport upon arrival ?
i am a signle female coming from the US. is this the same visa for Umrah? is the E-visa cost less than on arrival visa? how many months is this travel/umrah visa? can i fly on any airline? or i must travel on Saudi Airlines?
assalamu allaikum i have a question im basically indian now im at uk as a skilled worker now i planned to doo umarah can u explain the process and how i can get e visa for saudi arabia
Salam brother, if I can’t go on the date the waiver says, arrival date
Can I go on another date? Or I have to get a new waiver
Hi brother, is it also applicable for EU citizen? Please let me know. Many thanks.
Thank so much.
This has been so helpful.
I've managed to get 3 adult visas so far.
But having problems with our 6 month old baby.
Filling in the same form doesn't make sense.
Filled in baby's details.
The it asks for "dependants Application number and passport".
I entered my own. But I'm not the dependant obviously.
Also asks for Occupation. But doesn't allow anything sensible from the list.
Can't complete without this.
Please help. ❤
No worries really glad it helped Alhamdulillah. So the dependent application number should be at the bottom of the evisa that you have received and it should start with the letter E. Remove the E and input all the digits. For passport number, its just your passport number. Anyone over 18 can be the dependent so dont worry. As for occupation, the only workaround right now is to put down the occupation of any adult going. This is what so many people have been doing and its not an issue as its a known fault and the occupation is not printed on the evisa waiver.
We also process visas if youre having difficulties. You can apply below:

Really appreciate the info.
I'm having an issue with adding recently visited countries.
The "Add" button doesn't seem to click..
Jazaak Allaah khayr
Yes It doesn't add anything,
The box before you just tick yes if you have travelled.
Same with mine. It's processed instantly you will get email 👍
( I did it on my mobile 📲 )
@yblackburn6829 I think the portal is not tailored to mobile usage just yet.
It worked fine on the laptop.
Regardless, I'm glad to hear you've been granted the EVW and appreciate your kind word of advice.
Jazāk Allāhu khayr
Assalamualaikum
How did you manage to add the travel history?
@@shamsunnehar8528 wa alaikum assalām waraĥmatullāh akhi
It worked on the laptop my brother
Salam brother. On the occupation list for children what's the code? Or what's the appropriate option
There is none I tried for three weeks gave up in the end but best of luck
Brother do we compulsory need health insurance for this type of visa or the health insurance is optional?
*Medical Insurance*
This EVW does not include medical insurance. 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:

Sorry brother this is only for British nationals. For BRP, its a different process. Please check this website: www.visitsaudi.com/en/travel-regulations
