Hajj places are limited and rules are set by the Saudi authorities and your country of residence each year. Starting early makes everything easier.
General requirements
- Muslim adult, physically and financially able.
- Passport valid for at least 6 months.
- Required vaccinations (for example meningitis and seasonal vaccines — confirmed each year).
- Women travelling under the current rules for mahram or group travel.
- Booking through an approved Hajj organiser.
From the United Kingdom
UK residents register through the official Saudi platform (Nusuk Hajj) and book with an approved package. Registration usually opens several months before Hajj and places fill fast. We guide you through every step.
From Pakistan
Pilgrims from Pakistan can apply through the government scheme or private Hajj operators. Keep your CNIC, passport and documents ready and follow the official announcements for dates.
