Passport Validity for Umrah from Pakistan

The first document for Umrah from Pakistan is a valid passport. CNIC is supporting ID for the visa file, not a travel document to Saudi Arabia.

When to renew

If your passport will expire soon after travel, renew it before you apply. Operators cannot file a clean Umrah visa on a passport that is about to lapse. Follow the validity period your operator states for that departure — do not guess from an old WhatsApp forward.

Names and blank pages

The name on the visa must match the passport. Keep blank pages for stamps. Children’s passports are separate; a parent’s passport is not enough. Scan the bio page and take fresh photos before you inquire.
