Egypt announces new regulations for Umrah trips in 1448 AH after official approval
The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities has established new regulations for the 1448 Hijri Umrah season. These include setting the maximum duration of the program at 15 days, with an exception from the 15th of Sha'ban to the 17th of Ramadan, during which it can be extended up to 35 days. The regulations also require that passports be valid for at least six months, and that programs and visas be registered through the Egyptian Umrah Gateway prior to travel. Additionally, a maximum stay of one day in Medina is mandated, with a limit of four pilgrims per room, and a supervisor assigned for every 50 pilgrims. The regulations emphasize the necessity of returning 70% of the pilgrims before organizing new trips, and scheduling trips from Rajab until the end of the season. Under this schedule, each company is allowed to organize up to three trips per month, provided all pilgrims return before the next trip. The fee for the electronic barcode on the gateway is set at 3,100 Egyptian pounds per pilgrim, and the duration of the Umrah program during Ramadan is limited to 35 days.
