Book your Umrah slot

With your profile verified, an Umrah permit takes about a minute: pick a date and a prayer-time slot, confirm, and receive a QR ticket you’ll scan at Masjid al-Haram. It’s free.

Permit vs visaYour visa lets you enter Saudi Arabia; the Umrah permit lets you enter the Haram to perform Umrah at your chosen time. You need both.

  1. 1

    Open the Umrah permit

    From the home screen tap the Umrah tile, or open the permits area and choose Umrah. This is also where Rawdah lives and where you can review an existing reservation.

    Pick a date and a time slot

    The calendar shows upcoming dates. Tap a date, then a time. Slots are grouped by prayer period — you may see notes like “All Before Fajr slots are currently booked,” with an open slot such as 22:01 · After Isha marked Available in green.

    • Green “Available” = bookable.
    • Greyed / “booked” = that period is full; try another time or date.
    • Add companions before choosing the time if booking for family.

    Your Umrah ticket & QR code

    This is your permit — date, time, a QR code and a permit number. When your time nears, you’ll see “Your blessed time is near” and a Go to the Haram button.

    TipScreenshot the QR immediately and keep it in your photos — gates are crowded and signal can drop. The QR is scanned at the entry gates.

    Need to change it? Cancel and rebook

    Open the ticket and tap Cancel booking, then confirm. Cancelling won’t stop you issuing a new Umrah permit afterwards.

    How often?You can hold one active Umrah permit at a time. Once your slot passes (or you cancel), you can book another — in practice roughly every other day.
