Moreover, there are several Umrah and Hajj travel agents in the UAE to cater to such requirements. For the residents in Dubai, they can contact the following Hajj tour operators:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Regal Tours Dubai:<\/strong> +971 50 8474 794 | +971 4 2635 888<\/li><li><strong>Abdullah Bin Karam Hajj &amp; Umrah Travels:<\/strong> +971 4 228 8575<\/li><li><strong>Al Reayah Hajj &amp; Umrah Dubai:<\/strong> +971 55 971 1146 | +971 4 252 3130<\/li><li><strong>Al Hamar Hajj &amp; Umrah Services Dubai:<\/strong> +971 4 396 7711<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-visa\"><strong>VISA<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The selected tour operator applies for the Hajj visa for UAE residents. The visa is issued by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah of the KSA. Besides, Hajj visas are issued from mid of the month of Shawwal to the 25th of Dhu Al Qadah and are valid till the 15th of Muharram. These visas are only valid to go to Makkah and Madina. The following documents are required by the Hajj operator for a Hajj visa:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>An original passport that has a validity of six months. Also, in the case of Expats, the UAE residence visa must have a three-month validity.<\/li><li>A passport copy<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bayut.com\/mybayut\/all-about-emirates-id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Emirates ID<\/a> copy&nbsp;<\/li><li>Passport-sized photos with a white background.

However, women older than 45 years can travel without a Mehram if they provide a no-objection letter from their husband, brother or son to travel with the Hajj tour operator.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2017, the UAE government has stopped issuing Hajj Permits to Expats. These permits allowed the expats to travel for Hajj from the UAE. They could stay for 14 to 21 days in Makkah and Madina only. However, the expats need to obtain the Hajj permit from their respective country&#8217;s Hajj quota, but they can apply for the Hajj visa from the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-booking-and-flights\"><strong>BOOKING AND FLIGHTS&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"hajj packages from the uae and their details \" class=\"wp-image-89266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-421x263.jpg 421w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-558x349.jpg 558w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-363x227.jpg 363w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-774x484.jpg 774w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-672x420.jpg 672w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-437x273.jpg 437w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-301x188.jpg 301w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-771x482.jpg 771w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-669x418.jpg 669w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/12093429\/How-to-Travel-to-Hajj-from-the-UAE-_-Body-2-9-6-23-435x272.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>The Hajj tour operator is responsible for booking the hotels and flights <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The hotels and flights for Hajj will be booked by the tour operator.
