Short answer
The Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah's FAQ estimates the Umrah visa issuing fee at SAR 300. It publishes no separate fee for Pakistani or British passports, and the official eVisa portal did not open for our check on 02/11/2026. Read the fee on the official portal on the day you apply. Maqam e Haram does not sell the Umrah visa on its own: we arrange it together with other services, and the visa is included in the package quote.

Umrah visa price in Pakistan
Most families in Pakistan get the Umrah visa through a company, inside a package. The ministry's FAQ says an Umrah visa can't be issued without service packages that include the hotel and transport, so the visa usually arrives as one line of a larger quote. Pakistani outlets have also reported a daily Nusuk meal charge built into the visa fee for travellers from Pakistan. We found no official notice of it; our Nusuk food voucher guide has what we found.
When you compare quotes, ask each company whether the visa and its insurance are included. Our Umrah cost from Pakistan guide shows where the visa sits among the other lines.
How Maqam e Haram arranges the visa
Maqam e Haram does not sell the Umrah visa on its own. We arrange it together with the hotel, transport and other services in a package, and the visa is included in the package quote. We don't issue visas and can't promise one; the Saudi authorities decide. Send your dates on WhatsApp or call +92 309 9022120 for a written package quote, and see visa information for the documents.
Umrah visa fees from the UK
British citizens can use the tourist e-visa, the ETA or the electronic visa waiver for Umrah outside the Hajj season, according to GOV.UK. Only the e-visa includes health insurance. The fee for each is shown on the official portal when you apply, so read it there. Our Umrah cost from the UK guide compares the three routes.
If you live in the UK on a Pakistani passport, your route depends on your status. See Umrah visa types explained.
Questions and answers
How much is the Saudi Umrah visa fee for Pakistanis?
The ministry's FAQ estimates the Umrah visa fee at SAR 300 and gives no separate figure for Pakistani passports.
How much is the Umrah visa from the UK?
GOV.UK gives no fee. The official eVisa portal shows the fee for your passport when you apply.
Is the visa fee included in an Umrah package?
Usually, because the visa needs the hotel and transport booked first. With Maqam e Haram the visa is always part of the package quote.
Can I buy only the Umrah visa from Maqam e Haram?
No. We don't sell the visa on its own. We arrange it together with other services in a package, and the visa is included in the quote.
Where do I check the official Umrah visa fee?
On the official eVisa portal, visa.visitsaudi.com, when you apply, and in the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah's FAQ on haj.gov.sa.
Is the Nusuk meal charge part of the visa fee?
Pakistani outlets have reported it is, for travellers from Pakistan, but we found no official notice. Ask whether your quote includes it.
