UK passport holders have some very positive bilateral arrangements between the UK and Saudi Arabia. The e-waiver will avoid a sticker visa in your passport; less paperwork will, therefore, speed up the whole process and make it more affordable.
Purpose: Allows eligible passport holders to enter Saudi Arabia multiple times over a set validity period, which is ideal for those planning frequent Umrah visits
This type of visa is much more flexible for multiple journeys. The continued access will take more administration and delay and, therefore, cost you more in fees.
It might involve an added layer to the approval process—such as visa sponsorship, extra security checks, and additional paperwork. If non-British applicants are required to show proof of UK residence or require further documents of ID, this will take time for the agency and costs.
The difference in fees is not just random — it demonstrates real differences in work, documentation & policy regulations.
Whenever you can, go directly to the travel agency, as the price can fluctuate depending on the visa policy updates or agreements.
Planning is always best, and understanding what the fee covers will avoid any issues or confusion at the last minute.
These differences will allow you to budget appropriately.
Always use approved Umrah visa agents to confirm your Umrah if you have a non-British passport. Trusted agents are authorized by the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah.
