The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has authorized five Umrah Application Service Providers (UASPs) to facilitate communication between the Data Center and Umrah Companies and Travel Agents around the world. USAPs also ensure that best business practices are followed and that data transactions are completed on time. UASPs also allow businesses to concentrate on planning, organizing, and supervising operations.

A subscription to one of the five UASPs is required of all Umrah companies. All Umrah companies must meet all technical qualifications and requirements before subscribing. The Umrah company can post its Umrah packages once they have been chosen by a UASP.
