Deadline for Pilgrims to Depart is the Last Day of Dhul-Qadah

The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has set the deadline for pilgrims to enter and exit the Kingdom in preparation for the Hajj season. April 13, 2025, is the last day for pilgrims to enter Saudi Arabia, while April 29, 2025, is the final date for their departure. Remaining in the country after these dates is considered a violation that will result in penalties.
The ministry emphasized the importance of individuals, companies, and institutions involved in Umrah to adhere to the regulations and instructions for the timely departure of pilgrims. Any delay in departure after the specified date will be considered a violation. Failure to report pilgrims’ delays by companies may result in financial fines of up to 100,000 Saudi riyals and legal actions against the responsible parties.
