Authorities confirmed regulatory action was taken against the companies and their agents, while affected pilgrims were later given proper lodging.
This move follows an earlier crackdown in which 1,800 foreign Umrah agencies were suspended over service quality issues. Saudi officials closely monitor pilgrims’ journeys from entry to exit, including visas, transport, and hotels, to ensure safety and smooth operations.
Only approved hotels are allowed for Umrah bookings, and agencies offering visa-only services risk suspension.
