Total Cost of the Holiday or Visit:
Do consult the travel agent regarding their refund policy. An unforeseen event may lead to
cancellation of your trip or holiday. If this happens, it always helps if you can get the
money back.
Traveling with Family:
If you are traveling to Saudi Arabia with spouse and children, the travel insurance must
cover them. Therefore, it always helps to be informed before starting your journey and buy
the right travel insurance package.

Dear Sir/Madam, I hope you are well. I am a Pakistani national student currently residing in Italy on a valid Italian national visa (Type D), which is multiple-entry and valid for one year. I am legally staying in Italy and have applied for my residence permit (permesso di soggiorno), which is still under processing. I would like to ask for clarification regarding travel to Saudi Arabia for Umrah. My family is planning to visit Saudi Arabia, and I intend to perform Umrah with them. I would obtain my Umrah visa through an authorized Umrah agent in Pakistan. I would like to kindly confirm the following points: Is it permitted for me to apply for and use an Umrah visa issued through an authorized agent in Pakistan while I am currently residing in Italy? After completing Umrah, would it be allowed for me to return directly to Italy from Saudi Arabia using my valid multiple-entry Italian visa? For your information, I do not have an Italian entry stamp in my passport because I entered Italy from Hungary. I was a student there as well but I got transferred here this year, which is also part of the Schengen Area, and therefore no border stamp was issued. However, my Italian visa remains valid, and I will return before its expiry date. I would be very grateful for your guidance and confirmation so that I can plan my travel in full compliance with regulations. Thank you very much for your time and assistance. Yours sincerely, Danish Ahmed Pakistani Passport Holder Currently residing in Italy
