Umrah Packing List India: Complete Checklist for Pilgrims

Performing Umrah is a sacred milestone for every Muslim. For many travelers from India, the spiritual excitement is often followed by one big concern:

“What should I pack for Umrah?”

To make your journey organized and peaceful, OnlineUmrah.in has prepared the ultimate Umrah Packing List for Indian Pilgrims - covering essentials for men, women, and families. Whether you’re traveling from Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, or anywhere from India, this Umrah checklist will help you stay fully prepared.

Why is a packing checklist important for Umrah?

A packing list ensures your pilgrimage remains focused on Ibadah, not on forgotten essentials. Many first-time pilgrims either overpack or miss key items like unscented toiletries or Ihram belts.

With this organized list, you’ll travel light, smart, and stress-free.

What are the essential documents I must carry?

Always keep your travel documents safe and accessible:

• Valid Passport with Umrah Visa
• Flight tickets & hotel vouchers (OnlineUmrah.in provides all-inclusive Umrah Packages)
• Photocopies of IDs and documents (keep digital copies too)
• Saudi Riyals and/or international debit/credit card
• Waist pouch or document holder for daily use

 What clothes should men and women pack for Umrah?

For Men

• 2–3 sets of Ihram (light cotton preferred)
• Slippers/Sandals – easy to remove
• White kurta-pajama sets for daily wear
• Light jacket or sweater (for winter months)

For Women

• 2–3 Abayas (preferably black or navy)
• Hijabs and inner caps
• Comfortable slippers or flat shoes
• Socks (black & white)
• Foldable prayer mat

• Unscented soap, shampoo, and deodorant
• Toothbrush, toothpaste, and miswak
• Tissues, wet wipes, and small towels
• Hand sanitizer (unscented)
• Ihram belt, safety pins, nail cutter, and comb

What health and safety items should I carry?

Health should always come first during Umrah:

• Prescription medicines (enough for the entire trip)
• Basic first aid kit (band-aids, antiseptic cream, pain relief)
• ORS / rehydration salts
• Sunscreen & lip balm (unscented)
• Face masks & sanitizer (for crowded areas)

What are other must-have Umrah travel accessories?

• Small foldable bag for Haram visits
• Universal travel adapter & power bank
• Umbrella (especially during hot months)

• Comfortable cotton underclothes
• Shawl/scarf for layering
• Modest sleepwear (for shared rooms)

Any packing tips specifically for Indian pilgrims?

• Keep luggage within airline limits (usually 30kg + 7kg cabin).
• Pack Ihram in your hand luggage for easy access.
• Opt for light cotton clothing - Saudi Arabia is warm year-round.
• Carry snacks (like dry fruits or biscuits) for long hours in Haram.
• Label bags in English and Hindi for easy identification.
