Overview
- The federal government has opened a free online portal that lets Pakistanis register for Hajj 2027 from home without visiting an office.
- Registration is mandatory for all intending pilgrims whether they plan to use the government scheme or a private Hajj operator and failure to register will make applicants ineligible.
- Applicants do not need a passport to complete initial registration but must present a Pakistani passport valid through November 26, 2027 at the booking stage.
- The portal is available to overseas Pakistanis who can register remotely but must hold a valid Pakistani passport to finish the process.
- The Ministry of Religious Affairs says digitalization will improve speed and transparency, while details on Hajj package costs and the financial framework will be released later, a development that will determine final prices and booking rules.
