Common reasons: wrong photo background (must be white), passport validity under 6 months, name mismatch between documents, missing mahram documents for women, invalid vaccination certificate, or previous Saudi immigration violations.

Yes. Children of any age can perform Umrah with a parent or guardian. Each child needs their own passport, photograph, and visa. A birth certificate is required.

The Meningococcal ACWY (quadrivalent) vaccine is mandatory. The certificate must show your name, vaccine type, date, and batch number. Polio vaccination may also be required depending on current Saudi health ministry requirements — check the latest advisories.
