How to apply for a Hajj permit online?

A Hajj permit, issued by the Saudi government, is mandatory for all pilgrims visiting holy sites and is granted only to those meeting specific criteria.

To perform Hajj in 2025, you must register on the Nusuk Hajj online platform, the sole service provider approved by the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. Registration does not guarantee acceptance, as reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis and confirmed only after payment through the Nusuk portal.

Application process

Below are the steps to get your Hajj permit:

1. Create an account on the Nusuk Hajj online platform.
2. Upload the required documents.
3. Complete the application form with accurate details.
4. Wait for the verification of your application.
5. Choose your preferred Hajj category.
6. Top up your eWallet to ensure smooth transactions.
7. Browse through the available service providers.
8. Select the Hajj package that suits your needs.
9. Book the package once reservations open.
10. Review your itinerary for final confirmation.

All pilgrims can get a Hajj permit free of charge. Pilgrims only need to pay the Hajj package fee.
