Qattan confirmed that the Kingdom granted Egypt last year more than one million Umrah visas. In the New Year, if we receive one million Egyptians to perform Umrah for the first time, they will receive it. The Kingdom or the Saudi Embassy in Cairo will not receive any fees for this visa at all. Rich or poor, either if the rich person tried to obtain a visa Umrah for the second time, or has a material ability to pay.
"The whole issue is that the brothers in Egypt and the Arab countries should be given the opportunity to perform Umrah for the first time, and the incompetent will not apply for Umrah again because of its material conditions," Qattan said.
The Saudi ambassador in Cairo said the same applies to Hajj. Egypt gets between 80,000 and 85,000 visas. We make sure that Hajj visas are granted once every five years. This is a system that has been in place for a long time. He asked: "What is the harm that a person bears five Years because the obligatory once is enough, but those who wish to repeat this is another, and the vision of the Kingdom 2030 increase the number of pilgrims and Umrah during the coming period.
