Many of policies by the Saudi Ministry of Hajj keep on changing from year to year and many of them get amended. The law and policies offered by them are always in interests of the pilgrims so that they can have advantages, ease and comfort in every ritual they perform.For the same reason, some travel conditions for the pilgrimage are offered by the Ministry of Hajj for the pilgrims and they can be said strict travel instructions because of strict policies and rules. However the rules are somehow varying from purpose to purpose of visiting the Saudi Kingdom.
Instructions for the Umrah Pilgrims; the people who wants to visit the Saudi Kingdom for the performance of Umrah, have to follow the schemes made for the Umrah travelers. Travelers for both Hajj and Umrah can enter or depart both from Jeddah and Riyadh and not from any other city of the country.

Pilgrims for Umrah who enter from King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh or King Fahd International Airport in Dammam can depart from only these airports through which they take entry. People having visa for Umrah entering from King Abdul Aziz International airport in Jeddah or Prince Muhammad bin Abdul Aziz in Madina should leave from King Abdul Aziz International Airport in Jeddah or Prince Muhammad bin Abdul Aziz Airport in Madina without passing through other Saudi airports. The pilgrims should confirm their seats and flights for the whole Itinerary via Jeddah or Madina and the least connecting time for domestic flights should not be less than 4 hours. The pilgrims have to be at the airport at least 4 hours earlier than their departure. Umrah visa holders can only perform Umrah and are allowed to perform in any case. The scheme worked same for the tourist for travel or business trips but now the official authorities of the Saudi government has announced that the one with Hajj or Umrah visa can also visit holy sites and travel destinations in the same visa.
