Saudi Arabia will require health reports from candidates who will go on pilgrimage. Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has forwarded the health reporting criteria to the Presidency of Religious Affairs and the Ministry of Health.
Saudi Arabia has set new health criteria for pilgrims.
Accordingly, those eligible to go on pilgrimage will be able to receive pilgrimage visas once their health reports showing they meet the prescribed health conditions are uploaded to the relevant system.
If the reports are not uploaded to the system or the candidate does not meet the health criteria, the pilgrimage visa will not be issued. People whose health conditions are not suitable for pilgrimage can send healthy relatives to make the pilgrimage on their behalf. In the coming days, it is expected that research that will allow pilgrims to receive reports easily and quickly will be made publicly available.
