Saudi Arabia launches Nusuk, a digital platform for visitors with info on umrah visa and holy sites

Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah announced the launch of Nusuk (nusuk.sa), the official Saudi integrated digital platform that offers all pilgrims and visitors an easy-to-use planning gateway for their journeys to Makkah and Madinah. This e-platform aims to enhance the experience of Muslims visiting the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from all over the world and facilitate the arrival procedures for visitors to perform Umrah. Nusuk is an initiative of the Vision 2030 Pilgrim Experience Program.

Nusuk provides information and a wide range of services for pilgrims and visitors, enabling them to perform the Rituals of Umrah with ease and comfort. It will also raise the quality of the services provided and enrich the religious and cultural experience of visitors, in order to achieve the desired goals of Saudi Vision 2030.

Nusuk is launched in cooperation and partnership with the Saudi Tourism Authority to provide the full range of services across the Visit Saudi ecosystem including facilitating visas, permits, booking processes, and procedures. Nusuk also offers various packages and programs to improve and enrich the experience of Muslims visiting Makkah and Madinah.

At a later stage, additional services will include interactive maps, a calendar of offers and activities, healthcare information and services, and a digital guide for all policy guidelines which is provided in several languages. Nusuk also offers opportunities for the private sector, enabling service providers to offer their services electronically to pilgrims and visitors. The Maqam platform will continue to support Umrah Trip Program planning until its services are transferred to Nusuk at a later stage.
