The answer

The people of Makkah are permitted to perform Umrah followed by Hajj (Tamattu'), and they are not required to offer a sacrifice (Hady), according to Sheikh Al-Shanqeeti. Scholars have differed in defining "those present at the Sacred Mosque" (hadiri al-Masjid al-Haram), and the more likely opinion is that they are those for whom Friday prayer is obligatory in Makkah. So, if you are at a distance that obligates you to attend Friday prayer, then there is no sacrifice due from you for Tamattu'. If you are further away, then it is more cautious to offer a sacrifice.
