However pilgrims will be required to get the Corona Medical Insurance Scheme
Saudi Arabia authorities announced on Thursday to lift COVID restrictions imposed on foreign Umrah pilgrims.
According to Arab media, Saudi Arabia removed the requirement of PCR test and COVID vaccine certificate for foreign Umrah pilgrims.
However, it has been declared mandatory for pilgrims to get the Corona Medical Insurance Scheme.
A day earlier, security barriers were also removed from the sides of the Kaaba, after which pilgrims will now be able to kiss Hajar al-Aswad (the Black Stone). According to reports, now pilgrims will also be able to offer Nawafil at Hatim.
According to Sheikh Dr Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais, the head of the Haramin Sharif administration, the royal house approved the removal of barriers from the sides of the Kaaba.
It should be noted that temporary barriers were installed around the Kaaba as a precautionary measure due to the Corona epidemic, which have now been removed.
