The KSA Ministry of Hajj and Umra has said that Hajj and umrah pilgrims from Qatar are still welcome even with the government's decision to sever relations with Qatar.
"The Kingdom affirms its commitment and keenness to provide all facilities and services for Qatari and all pilgrims," the ministry said in a statement online.
Oman Air has also stated through Facebook on June 13 that Qatari citizens are now allowed to travel on Oman Air from Doha to Jeddah via Muscat for umrah.
On June 5, the KSA government announced that it had severed diplomatic and consular relations with Qatar, closed all land, sea and air ports to the country to prevent Qatar from crossing into Saudi territories, airspace and territorial waters for reasons relating to Saudi national security.
Saudi citizens are prohibited from travelling to Qatar, residing in or passing through it, while Saudi residents and visitors had to leave Qatari territories within 14 days. Likewise, Qatari citizens may not enter or transit through KSA, and Qatari residents and visitors had to leave Saudi territories within 14 days.
