The Ministry of Religious Affairs has issued important guidelines for Hajj pilgrims, emphasizing that certain vaccinations are mandatory before traveling to Saudi Arabia.
According to the ministry’s announcement, pilgrims must receive vaccinations for meningitis, influenza, and polio free of charge at their nearest Hajj camp. After getting vaccinated, they must also collect a yellow vaccination card from the camp, as entry into Saudi Arabia will not be permitted without a valid vaccination certificate.
Additionally, the ministry advised that pilgrims aged 65 and above must carry their previous COVID-19 vaccination card. If they do not possess one, they are required to visit the nearest Hajj camp to receive the COVID-19 vaccine and obtain the necessary certification.
