For those coming from the United Kingdom, Tunisia, Kuwait, Bangladesh, Malaysia, and Iran, including the Republic of the Congo, the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has announced the beginning of the condition to register the biometric enrollment “fingerprint” to issue Umrah Visa online for those coming from these countries.
It is important to note that this requirement is intended to facilitate the arrival procedures of those who are coming to perform Umrah upon their arrival through Saudi Arabia’s ports, as well as to enrich the digital experience for those who are coming to perform Umrah.
A person who wishes to register their fingerprints to issue an Umrah Visa must download the (Saudi Visa Bio) application and then select the visa type they would like to apply for.
To verify the individual’s identity, the individual must first scan the passport to verify their identity, then take a full-face photograph from the front camera, compare it to the individual’s picture in the passport, and then scan the 10 fingerprints electronically using the camera to verify their identity.
