Short answer
Saudi Arabia asks for an international vaccination certificate stating meningococcal ACWY, with date, vaccine name, batch number and the practitioner's signature. The certificate is uploaded with the visa application via Nusuk and checked on arrival. We complete it during the appointment and you take it with you straight away.
Planning your vaccination
- Meningococcal ACWY, required for Saudi Arabia
- International vaccination certificate straight away
- Evening and weekend appointments, every day 10:00 to 22:00
What the certificate must state

Submitting it to Nusuk
In the application via hajj.nusuk.sa you upload a scan or clear photo of the relevant page. Keep the paper certificate with your passport throughout the journey; it may still be requested on arrival.
Lost or illegible
If you have lost your certificate, we can issue a new one when the vaccination was given by us or when you can supply the details from another record. Get in touch and do not wait until just before departure.
Information about registration and packages is based on the official Nusuk Hajj platform of the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. Registration and payment take place there only; DKliniek provides the medical preparation.
