Riyadh-UNS : The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has announced the opening of registration for citizens and residents wishing to perform Hajj in 1447 AH (2026). Registration began on 6 Ramadan and is being conducted exclusively through the Nusuk Hajj platform, available on its website and mobile application.
Booking of Hajj packages will start from 15 Ramadan, enabling applicants to choose from services offered by licensed operators. In the initial phase, priority will be given to first-time pilgrims in line with government policy. Registration will remain open until the end of Shawwal, after which remaining places may be allocated to other eligible applicants.
According to the ministry, applicants must be at least 15 years old, meet all health and vaccination requirements, and hold a valid residency permit in case of non-citizens. Vaccination records will be automatically verified through technical links with health authorities.
The ministry said the electronic registration system aims to streamline bookings, ensure transparency and organize data efficiently before the package selection stage. Applicants were advised to register through official channels only.
Officials added that the response has been strong since the launch of registration and the process is progressing smoothly to ensure a well-organized Hajj for domestic pilgrims in the Saudi Arabia.
