Saudi Arabia agrees to receive green passport Libyan Umrah goers
Saudi Arabia has announced that it will accept the Libyan green passport holders who are going to Umrah this season only.
Saudis explained that the old green coloured passports must be valid for no less than 6 months starting from the time of traveling to Mecca.
This comes amid an unimaginable crowdedness in the e-passports registration and issuing offices around Libya as nearly all world’s countries decided to accept Libyan travellers who have the new e-passports.
