To All Umrah Travel Operators
We would like to inform that all Umrah Travel Operators who would like to take Umrah pilgrims from Sri Lanka this year, are kindly requested to register with the Department of Muslim Religious and Cultural Affairs on payment of Registration Fee of Rs. 25,000/- as in the past years.
The Department would be able to coordinate with relevant authorities in Sri Lanka and Saudi Arabia easily and extend necessary Consular and Welfare assistance to the pilgrims and the Operators and would also be able to ensure that the pilgrims would be provided proper accommodation, food and other travel arrangements by the Travel Operators only if they are registered with this Department.
Hence, all Umrah Travel Operators are kindly requested to register with this Department with immediate effect, if they would like to take Umrah pilgrims from Sri Lanka to Saudi Arabia in the year 2022 (Hijri 1444)
If any pilgrim or Umrah Travel Operator would require more details in this regard, they are kindly requested to contact Hajj & Umrah Division of this Department on 0112669972 or via email: director@muslimaffiars.gov.lk
