Why You Need the Meningitis ACWY Vaccine for Hajj & Umrah
Saudi Arabia requires individuals intending to perform Hajj or Umrah to meet current meningococcal vaccination requirements before travelling. This helps protect against serious meningococcal disease and reduces infection risk in large gatherings.
At least 10 days before arrival
Current 1447H/2026 Saudi guidance states that approved meningococcal ACYW vaccines must be administered at least 10 days before arrival, with validity depending on the vaccine type.
At Biscot Pharmacy, we provide:
- The required Meningitis ACWY vaccination, subject to clinical suitability
- Vaccination documentation showing the relevant vaccine details
- Appointment availability through our online booking service
- Expert travel-health advice
- A convenient Luton location on Biscot Road
Your pharmacist will check the latest Saudi requirements relevant to your journey and advise what documentation you should carry.
When Should You Get Vaccinated?
You must receive an approved Meningitis ACWY vaccine at least 10 days before arrival in Saudi Arabia so it meets the current Saudi timing requirement.
We recommend booking early — especially during peak pilgrimage seasons — to avoid last-minute stress and allow time to review any other requirements that apply to you.

Do I need a vaccination certificate for Hajj or Umrah?
Saudi requirements include meningococcal vaccination and supporting vaccine details. Biscot Pharmacy provides vaccination documentation after your appointment. Because proof and entry processes can change, carry your documentation and check the latest Saudi requirements before travel.
How long before travelling should I get vaccinated?
Current 1447H/2026 Saudi guidance requires an approved meningococcal vaccine to be given at least 10 days before arrival. Booking earlier is sensible so there is time to review any additional travel-health requirements.

Children and young pilgrims may require meningococcal vaccination for pilgrimage, but age, vaccine product and clinical suitability must be checked individually. Our pharmacist will review the current Saudi guidance and the traveller’s age and medical history.

Possibly. Current Saudi guidance recommends seasonal influenza for Hajj, and additional vaccination or proof requirements can apply depending on health status and country of origin. Our pharmacist can review your individual travel plan.

Yes. Current Saudi guidance requires individuals intending to perform Hajj or Umrah to meet approved meningococcal vaccination requirements before travelling.
