Verify the IATA Certificate 📜
Explanation & Guidelines
Always begin by checking if the company is IATA certified. If not, it’s not a proper travel company – just an agent pretending to be an Umrah consultant. Such agents usually have no authorised system for booking flights, visas, or hotels. They might send you for Umrah through unreliable or unauthorised channels, which can cause serious problems at immigration or even in Saudi Arabia. A genuine IATA number is easy to verify on the official IATA Number Checker website.
Risks & Dangers
Why this matters: This ensures the travel company is officially approved to book your Umrah flights and visas. Last week, one family booked through an unverified WhatsApp agent. Their visas turned out fake at airport. They spent double money for urgent Umrah visas. Always verify before paying.
The Aimah Way
When you book through a certified company like UmrahPackageFromDelhi.com, you travel with peace of mind knowing every step like visa, flight, hotel, and ziyarah is officially arranged.

Frequently Asked Questions
Understanding licensing, rules, and government approvals before embarking on your sacred voyage.
Q:How can I verify if an IATA number shared by an agent is genuine?
You can go to the official IATA portal and use the Customer Support / License Verifier page. Alternatively, a simpler way is to demand their GST, official registered address, and official domain email address. Most fraudulent agents operate via simple free gmail accounts (@gmail.com) and lack a proper corporate domain or official verified office listings.
Q:What is Nusuk, and why does my visa source matter?
Nusuk is Saudi Arabia's official unified platform for planning, booking, and performing Umrah. Authorized partners obtain direct access to the visa systems. Sub-agents who buy visas from others can suffer delays or generate invalid visas. Checking the Nusuk license of your provider is critical.
Q:What is 'Damm' and when is it penalty on fake booking mistakes?
If an uncertified agent books you into unauthorised accommodations far from the borders, you may be raided by local authorities. Fines can reach up to 10,000 SAR. Additionally, violating sacred state borders or wearing Ihram improperly due to misinformation triggers Damm (sacred animal sacrifice penalty in Islamic jurisprudence). Ensure you perform all steps under certified guides.
