New Unified Digital Platform Launched for Umrah Pilgrimage
The platform is aimed at developing the experience of pilgrims, and facilitating the procedures for their arrival from all over the world, as part of the initiatives of the Pilgrim Experience Program, one of the Kingdom's Vision 2030 programs.
"Nusuk.sa" was launched in cooperation and partnership with the Saudi Tourism Authority. It is linked to the services provided on the "Visit Saudi Arabia" to enrich the journey of the pilgrims and facilitate reservation and communication procedures to provide various packages and programs to improve their experience in Mecca and Medina.
Minister of Hajj and Umrah Tawfiq bin Fawzan Al-Rabiah said the new platform aims to improve the quality of services provided to pilgrims using the latest technologies, and in integration with several government agencies to facilitate procedures, and allow pilgrims and visitors to perform their rituals with ease and comfort.
Minister of Tourism and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Saudi Tourism Authority Ahmed bin Aqeel Al-Khatib underlined the importance of "Nusuk.sa" as it comes within the framework of cooperation and integration between the Authority and the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah under the umbrella of the Pilgrim Experience Program to serve the pilgrims and the visitors, and realize the objectives of Vision 2030.
"Nusuk.sa" enables those wishing to perform the Umrah or visit to issue the necessary visas and permits, and book packages and programs electronically.
A range of other services will be provided at a later stage, including interactive maps, a calendar dedicated to offers and activities, a digital guide for all instructions in several languages, and health information.
