Vaccinations Required for Pilgrims Are Free in Qatar Health Centers

Qatar's Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) has announced that all the vaccinations required for Hajj or Umrah are available free of charge to people in all of its 31 health centers in various regions across the country. 

The announcement was made through the PHCC's Department of Communicable Diseases of the Department of Infection Control.

The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah in Saudi Arabia, in a bid to return to pre-pandemic conditions, has not imposed any restrictions on the number of pilgrims this year. 

The ministry also indicated that there are no age restrictions in place for pilgrims.

People who wish to travel to Saudi Arabia for Hajj or Umrah this year should have taken no less than two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Pilgrims from outside Saudi Arabia must provide a valid vaccination certificate proving receipt of the required vaccinations.

The PHCC said that the vaccinations should be completed at least 10 days or more before travelling to Saudi Arabia.
