Yes, you are allowed to enter Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah. I wish you a speedy recovery.

Dear questioner,

Your medical ban from the UAE for a TB scar is a specific ban related to residency. It does not automatically mean you are banned from all other GCC countries or from traveling for Umrah.

Saudi Arabia's regulations for Umrah are different, and as long as your TB is not active and you meet the vaccination requirements, you should be able to travel.

However, it is always best to confirm with the official Saudi authorities and to be prepared with a medical report.

If you need more details, kindly share your WhatsApp number.

Hello,

A medical ban in the UAE related to TB scars usually applies only to entry or residence within the UAE and is not specifically shared across GCC countries.

This means you can generally travel to Saudi Arabia for Umrah, as the UAE does not have a unified medical data sharing system with GCC countries, which affects travel bans.

However, at UAE immigration or other GCC borders, if you have a medical ban still active under UAE law, this could affect re-entry or exit from the UAE. It is advisable to check your current UAE medical and travel ban status through the health authorities or immigration.

Let me know if you need help with that.

The GCC countries do have shared immigration systems, but not all medical bans are entered into them unless they are connected to security, criminal, or immigration violations.

If the disease is not active, you should have proof from the health authorities, and you can apply for Umrah and wait for the approval.
