Planning Umrah from Sri Lanka? The visa is usually arranged as part of a package by an approved agent, along with your flights and hotels.

What you'll typically need

  • A passport valid for at least six months.
  • Passport-size photos to specification.
  • Confirmed return flights (Colombo to Jeddah or Madinah).
  • Hotel bookings in Makkah and Madinah.
  • Vaccination requirements as specified for the season.

Timing

Umrah demand — and prices — peak during Ramadan and school holidays, and hotels near the Haram sell out early. Apply and book well in advance for the best hotels and fares.

The easiest way: a complete package

Rather than piecing it together, most pilgrims book a package where the agent handles the visa, flights, hotels near the Haram, and ground transport with a guide. See our Umrah package from Sri Lanka, or tell us your dates and group size for a quote.
