A step-by-step guide to how the Nusuk app and Absher platform work together for Umrah visa processing.
The Saudi government uses two primary platforms for Umrah visa management: Nusuk (for pilgrims) and Absher (for Saudi residents sponsoring guests). Understanding how these work together is essential for a smooth visa process.
Nusuk is the official Saudi government platform for Umrah pilgrims. It allows you to apply for Umrah visas, book hotels, and manage your complete Umrah journey digitally through the Nusuk app or website.
Absher is the Saudi government's digital platform for Saudi citizens and residents. Saudi hosts use Absher to accept Umrah visa requests from their guests (pilgrims from abroad).
The Saudi host logs into their Absher account at absher.sa using their National ID and password.
Navigate to 'My Services' › 'Visa Services' › 'Umrah Visa for Hosted Guests'.
View pending Umrah visa requests from guests. Review the pilgrim's details and visa application information.
Click 'Qabool' (Accept) to approve the visa request. The pilgrim's visa application then proceeds for final approval.
