Dear All,

Anybody have any information that when Qatar will open the Umrah Visas by own vehicle. As last time one of our friend posted that He was sent back from boarder while he was going to Umrah by his own car even he got the Umrah visa from an authorized agent.

About 06 months before there was a news that Saudi Government has allowed for Umrah by own vehicles for all GCC countries.

If anybody have information please share.

Thanks and Regards,

Brother and Sister could anyone confirm this news about lifting ban on Umrah because I heard that we can go by car but there are some specific agents who can arrange visa and we have to show booking of hotel.hotel. Pls do confirm because we would like to go Umrah by next month.

Good grief people... Why this constant to-ing and fro-ing. If you don't belive that the ban exists.. Then get in your car and drive to the border . Good luck!

I believe that Umrah by own car is already opened since last month, please call any Umrah agent and cross check.

This question is asked every day. The simple answer is that till now , personal cars are not allowed. You can only go by bus or plane.

Good Luck!
