Umrah Visa Check by Passport Number (Pakistan): Check Status and Print Your E-Visa

Your Umrah visa is applied for by your travel agent through the Saudi system, and it arrives as an e-visa — there is no stamp in the passport. That is why so many pilgrims search "Umrah visa check by passport number" in the days before the flight: to see with their own eyes that the visa is issued and to print it. This guide shows the official way to do it, read from the MOFA visa platform on 26 October 2026, and explains the screens that confuse people. For the visa fee, documents and children's rules, see our Umrah visa fee and requirements guide.

What You Need Before You Start

• Your passport number, exactly as printed on the photo page (letters and digits, no spaces).
• One more identifier — your first name as written in the passport, or your visa number, application number or Ministry of Hajj reference number if your agent has shared it. The form offers exactly these choices.
• Your nationality — select Pakistan from the list.
• A phone or computer with a browser. No account or login is needed for this page.

How to Check Your Umrah Visa by Passport Number (5 Steps)

Step 1: Open the official MOFA visa platform

Go to visa.mofa.gov.sa, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa platform. Use the English link at the top if the page opens in Arabic.

Step 2: Go to Visitor Services, then Print E-Visa

From the homepage choose Visitor Services, then the Print E-Visa service. Do not use the inquiry box on the homepage: it asks for a registry number meant for the Saudi side of an application.

Step 3: Choose two identifiers and type them exactly

In First value choose Passport Number and type it exactly as printed. In Second value choose First Name, Visa Number, Application Number or Ministry of Hajj reference number and type it exactly as on your passport or visa papers.

Step 4: Select Pakistan, type the image code and search

Choose Pakistan as nationality, type the characters in the image code box and press the search or inquire button.

Step 5: Check the details, then save and print

If the visa has been issued it opens on screen. Check your name, passport number and visa type, then save it as a PDF and print a copy for your hand luggage.

Tip: The page also has a "Device used" choice (barcode reader or passport reader). Ignore it on a phone or home computer and just fill in the two values.

Why the Box on the MOFA Homepage Doesn't Work for Pilgrims

The first thing you see on visa.mofa.gov.sa is an inquiry box for submitted applications. It asks for an application number together with a registry number. That box is built for the Saudi side of an application and for businesses, not for a pilgrim in Pakistan — so it returns nothing however carefully you type. The Ministry's own e-services catalogue lists its "Search for Umrah Application" service for businesses, which is why your agent can sometimes see a status that you cannot (MOFA e-services). Use Visitor Services → Print E-Visa instead.

"No Record Found"? What It Usually Means

• The visa is not issued yet. The Print E-Visa page only finds issued visas. If your agent has only just submitted the application, wait and try again later.
• A detail does not match. Type the passport number without spaces. For the first name, use the spelling in the two machine-readable lines at the bottom of your passport photo page.
• Wrong nationality selected. The list is long; make sure Pakistan is chosen.
• Image code typed wrongly. Refresh the code and type it again.
• Still nothing? Ask your agent for the visa number and search with passport number + visa number.

Words like "submitted", "under process" or "send to embassy" that you may see in an agent's system describe the application stage. Until the e-visa opens on the Print E-Visa page, treat the visa as not ready.

After the Visa Opens: Check, Save and Print

• Check every detail: your name and passport number must match the passport you will travel on, and the visa type must be Umrah. If anything is wrong, tell your agent before you travel.
• Mind the entry deadline. You must enter Saudi Arabia no later than 30 days after the visa is issued, or it is cancelled (Al Arabiya).
• Save a PDF and print it. Airlines ask for the visa at check-in. Keep one paper copy in your hand luggage and the PDF on your phone, for every family member.
• Next: Nusuk. Registering in the Nusuk app for your Umrah permit asks for your passport number and visa number, so keep the visa handy — see our Umrah new rules 2026 guide.
• Vaccination. Airport staff in Pakistan also check the vaccination certificate; see our Umrah vaccination requirements.

Use Only the Official Site

Type your passport details only on visa.mofa.gov.sa. Several commercial sites copy the look of the MOFA page, show adverts, ask for money for a search that is free, or keep your passport data. The MOFA platform also carries a notice about a new trial platform, "KSA VISA" (ksavisa.sa); until your agent tells you otherwise, Print E-Visa on visa.mofa.gov.sa is the page to use for an Umrah e-visa.
