The Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs has published the approved dates for the 1448 Hajj season. If you already have an application on the platform, you have until 24 September to change it.
The dates
- Amending an existing application — by substitution or cancellation only: 1 to 24 September 2026.
- Pilgrim nomination: 27 September to 11 October 2026.
- Registration of new applications: opens 6 December 2026, with criteria to be announced later.
What has not been announced
The statement does not name the platform’s address, does not give the nomination criteria, and does not say what becomes of an application left unamended after 24 September. The ministry says there is no route other than these dates, and tells applicants to follow its official announcements and keep to them.
