Saudi Arabia suspends 1,800 foreign travel agencies for failing Umrah service standards, halting new visas but not affecting existing pilgrims.
Saudi Arabia has suspended contracts with 1,800 foreign travel agencies handling Umrah pilgrimages due to poor performance and failure to meet service standards, according to the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah.
The move, part of ongoing reforms under Vision 2030, halts new visa issuance but does not affect pilgrims with existing bookings.
Agencies have 10 days to correct deficiencies to regain their contracts.
The suspension targets a significant portion of the roughly 5,800 global agencies involved in Umrah travel.
