This includes things such as ensuring you have the relevant Umrah visas for Canadian passport holders and PR card holders as well as booking your airfare and hotel accommodations beforehand. If you’re planning to book your Umrah tour, take a look at 2 essential things that you need to know.
You need a valid passport
In order to apply for Umrah visas for Canadian passport holders, you will need to have a valid passport which is valid for at least 6 months from the date of your return travel date. You may also apply if you have a valid Canadian PR card and a machine-readable passport of your nationality; both of these must also be valid for at least 6 months after your return travel date.
There are regulations for ladies and male travelers under 18 years of age
Certain travelers have requirements that must be met before they can be approved for travel to Saudi Arabia. If you are a female pilgrim traveling for Umrah, you must be accompanied by at least one accepted male family member who is over the age of 18, such as your father, husband, brother, uncle, grandfather, son or son-in-law. If you are a male pilgrim under the age of 18, you must be accompanied by at least one accepted male family member who is over the age of 18, such as your father, brother, uncle or grandfather.
