The number of tour operators with Umrah licenses has reached 14

The Committee for Religious Affairs has issued licenses to 2 more tour companies based on the results of a competition for individual licenses to organize and conduct Umrah events.

It is noted that the selection committee recognized Centrum Holidays, located in Tashkent, and Bukhara Umra Society LLC, located in Bukhara, as the winners of the competition.

On March 7 of this year, the Committee for Religious Affairs announced that it had begun accepting new applications from business entities to obtain Umrah licenses for the second time.

According to local media, the licensing authority received more than 10 applications, but the committee only granted licenses to two of them. The Committee for Religious Affairs did not announce the announcement of a competition for a new license, nor its results, on its official pages on social media, which are used by the general public.

Currently, the number of tour companies licensed to organize Umrah pilgrimages in Uzbekistan has reached 14.
