In a bid to address concerns over a potentially low number of applications, Pakistan government authorities have decided to accept Hajj 2026 applications from unregistered pilgrims as well.
As per details, applications from already registered pilgrims under the Pakistan government Hajj scheme will be received from August 4 to 9.
Unregistered applicants will be allowed to submit their Hajj 2026 applications from August 11 to 16, the sources said.
They further added that applications will be entertained on a first-come, first-served basis, with preference given to those who have already completed the registration process.
For the standard 38–42-day Hajj package, applicants will be required to deposit Rs. 500,000. For the short-duration 20–25-day Hajj package, a first installment of Rs. 550,000 will be payable.
