Riyadh: The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah announced the launch of the Package Preference Phase via the Nusuk Hajj platform for the 1447 AH - 2026 Hajj season, targeting pilgrims from countries under the Direct Hajj Program.
According to Saudi Press Agency, this phase enables prospective pilgrims to review available service packages, compare offerings based on service level, content, and cost, and select up to five preferred options. The initiative aims to empower pilgrims to make informed decisions in advance of the official booking phase, while simultaneously providing service providers with insights to better prepare for the upcoming season.
The Nusuk Hajj platform simplifies the pilgrimage experience with digital features such as package comparison tools, preference indicators showing popularity trends, installment-based deposits via a digital wallet, and access to an officially approved list of service providers.
The ministry called on pilgrims eligible for the Direct Hajj Program to register or update their existing information through the platform, and to ensure the accuracy of all personal data and documentation. It also encouraged pilgrims to add family members wishing to perform Hajj under the same application to facilitate verification and accelerate application approvals.
In its statement, the ministry reaffirmed that Nusuk Hajj is the sole official and approved platform for Hajj services in countries under the Direct Hajj Program. It emphasized the importance of avoiding transactions with any unauthorized entities or unaccredited service providers. All deposits and bookings must be made exclusively through the Nusuk Hajj platform to ensure procedural integrity and safeguard pilgrim rights.
