According to the current official Nusuk Rawdah guidance, if you cannot attend your scheduled visit and do not cancel before the appointment, the booking is cancelled. The official guidance states that another visit can then be made through the Instant Track service.
If your plans change, cancelling the booking through Nusuk is preferable to simply missing the appointment.
Can You Book a Rawdah Visit for Other People?
Yes. Nusuk currently provides group visitor management for Rawdah bookings. A booking manager can add visitors to a group, subject to the current Nusuk requirements.
The official Rawdah page currently states that up to four additional visitors can be added to a visitor group and that the booking manager handles confirmation for the group.
Can You Get a Rawdah Permit at a Nusuk Counter?
The current official Nusuk service information identifies the Rawdah Sharifah permit service through Nusuk and its app. We could not verify from the current official sources that a physical Nusuk counter is a separate guaranteed booking channel for Rawdah appointments.
If you need on-site assistance in Madinah, check the latest instructions from official Nusuk or Ministry staff rather than relying on an older counter location or unofficial booking information.
