Saudi Arabia has officially opened registration for Hajj 1447 AH (2026) for pilgrims from Muslim-minority countries via the Nusuk Hajj platform. The fully digital system allows direct registration without intermediaries, enabling users to create accounts, upload documents, and include up to seven family members. Guides can also apply through the same platform. The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah warned against unauthorised services, stressing that only licensed providers are permitted.
Eligible pilgrims can now register directly through Nusuk Hajj, eliminating the need for external agents and ensuring a secure, official process. Registration began on 15 Rabi’ Al-Thani 1447 AH, corresponding to 7 October 2025, with account setup currently available; details on Hajj packages and bookings will be shared later.
The platform guides users step by step: selecting the country of residence, entering an email, completing OTP verification, creating a password, and uploading required documents including a passport, personal photo, and proof of residence. Family members, up to seven, can be added under a single account for simpler group registration.
Prospective Hajj guides can register via the “Become a Guide” option to submit forms for Ministry approval. The Ministry emphasised that only the official portal, hajj.nusuk.sa, is valid for registration, warning pilgrims against unauthorised links or third-party services. Only licensed providers authorised through Nusuk Hajj may handle bookings and payments.
