Pakistan has allocated 107,526 seats for the Hajj 2027 Government Scheme, with two package options - a 40-day package costing Rs1.2 million and a 20 to 25-day package priced at Rs1.3 million. Federal Minister for Religious Affairs Sardar Muhammad Yousaf announced these details, explaining that the entire Hajj 2027 process has been digitized from start to finish.
Pilgrims can now complete the application process from home, pay Hajj dues, and access related facilities. The government aims to eliminate long queues, unnecessary travel expenses, and waiting times. Pilgrims can now apply, pay 50% of the selected package amount, and make the final payment in October.
Habib Bank Limited has been appointed as the authorized banking partner to assist in applications and payments. The Ministry of Religious Affairs has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Habib Bank Limited for this purpose. Three easy digital payment options are available - OneLink PSID, credit/debit card, and a digital challan form from the Pak Hajj App.
The federal minister also allocated 71,684 seats for the Private Hajj Scheme, where pilgrims can choose from 25 government-approved Hajj organizers available via the Hajj Portal or Pak Hajj App. All selection and payments will be made through the designated digital system, with no direct payments to private tour operators accepted.
