    Government Announces Hajj 2025 Application Process

    The application procedure for Hajj 2025 under the government scheme has been officially announced by the Ministry of Religious Affairs. The application window will open on November 18 and remain open until December 3, with an extended deadline of December 6 for individuals who already have valid passports. This represents the commencement of the pilgrimage for potential pilgrims who aspire to complete the sacred pilgrimage.


    Process of Submitting an Application

    Applicants who are interested in participating in Hajj 2025 may submit their applications at designated institutions throughout the nation beginning on November 18. The application period will conclude on December 3, and individuals who possess legitimate passports will have the opportunity to submit their applications until December 6. The entire process has been simplified to facilitate the convenience of applicants across the country, with the inclusion of online submissions and payments.


    Breakdown of Hajj Payments


    The payment for Hajj 2025 will be made in three installments:

    Initial Payment: Rs. 200,000 is required upon submission of the application.
    Second Payment: Applicants will be obligated to pay Rs. 400,000 if they are selected in the Hajj draw.
    Final Payment: The remaining balance must be resolved by February 10, 2025.

    Services such as sacrificial animals and room enhancements for double or triple occupancy will incur additional fees.

     

    Medical Requirements and Eligibility Criteria

    In order to participate in the government’s Hajj 2025 program, applicants must satisfy specific eligibility requirements:

    In order to qualify, applicants must have been born prior to February 12, 2013.

    All applicants are required to submit a medical certificate that attests to their physical and mental health.

    Individuals who are currently living abroad may obtain medical certificate documents from the Ministry’s official website for effortless submission.


    Preference for Individuals who are Making Their First Pilgrimage

    First-time applicants under the standard government scheme will be prioritized. This presents an opportunity for individuals who have not yet participated in the Hajj pilgrimage to do so.

     

    Special Provisions for Women


    Women are now permitted to register for Hajj without the necessity of a Mahram, which is a substantial advancement.
    Nevertheless, they are required to disclose their family status during the application procedure. The objective of this action is to guarantee Saudi regulations are adhered to while simultaneously increasing the accessibility of female pilgrims.

     

    Estimated Total Expenses

    Under the government scheme, the anticipated total cost of conducting Hajj in 2025 is between Rs. 10,75,000 and Rs. 11,75,000. Additional services, including accommodation options and other optional fees, may influence the precise amount.

     


    Process of Drawing and Selection

    The selected applicants for Hajj 2025 will be determined through a lottery that will take place on December 6. Successful applicants will receive additional instructions regarding the completion of their payments and the preparation for the pilgrimage.

     


    Simplified Payment of Fees and Application

    The entire application process, which encompasses the submission of fees, has been simplified and made accessible online. This ensures that petitioners from all regions of the country can easily submit their applications and complete the necessary procedures for Hajj 2025, regardless of their geographic location.

    The Ministry of Religious Affairs is committed to ensuring that all potential pilgrims can commence their spiritual journey with confidence and simplicity by establishing a transparent and efficient process.
