Direct answer: Pakistan’s Private Hajj Scheme 2027 still had about 15,000 seats available on October 27, 2026, after roughly 80% of the quota had been booked. The deadline to select a package and complete payment is November 20, 2026. Use only the official Pak Hajj App or the Ministry’s Hajj Management Portal; do not pay an individual, agent or Hajj company directly.[1][3][4]

What changed on October 27?
The latest government-broadcast update said that about 80% of Private Hajj Scheme seats had been booked and approximately 15,000 remained. It also said pilgrims had deposited Rs57.5 billion in Hajj dues.[1]
The same update clarified that the Rs55,000 animal-sacrifice cost is already included in all private packages listed in the Pak Hajj App and portal. Any additional facilities must also be selected and paid for through the digital system.[1]
Seat availability is not guaranteed until your booking and payment are completed successfully. The remaining-seat figure is a dated snapshot, not a promise that 15,000 places are still open when you read this.
10-step Private Hajj 2027 booking checklist
- Open the official app or portal. Type
https://hajj.mora.gov.pk/yourself or use the Ministry page above rather than following a payment link from a message. - Create or access your account. The portal supports sign-up and login by email, mobile number or CNIC.[6]
- Confirm your personal details. Check your name, CNIC, passport information, contact number and group details before choosing a package.
- Verify the organizer. Use the Ministry’s Hajj 2027 verification material and select only an organizer shown in the official system.[2]
- Compare the full package. Review duration, departure point, flights, accommodation, room sharing, distance, transport, food and included services—not only the headline price.
- Confirm the sacrifice line. The Ministry spokesperson’s October 27 update says Rs55,000 for animal sacrifice is already included in every listed private package. Ask for clarification inside the official process if your package screen appears inconsistent.[1]
- Add optional facilities digitally. Select and pay for extra facilities only through the app or portal.[1]
- Pay inside the official system. Do not transfer funds directly to an organizer, agent, salesperson or personal bank account. The Ministry says it will not be responsible for transactions made outside the designated digital channels.[1][4]
- Save evidence. Download or screenshot the selected package, organizer name, total amount, transaction reference, receipt and booking status.
- Recheck the status. Return to the official portal’s Application Inquiry or your app dashboard and confirm that the booking and payment are recorded before November 20.[4][6]
How much do Private Hajj 2027 packages cost?
The Ministry spokesperson said 16 basic private packages had been finalized, ranging from Rs1.4 million to Rs3.75 million. Options included short-duration packages, direct flights from abroad and five-star packages.[4]
Treat that as the announced basic range, not a quote for every traveler. Your total can vary with the package, departure city or overseas flight arrangements, room type and optional facilities. Read the live package details before authorizing payment.

Comparing the same fields across packages reduces the risk of choosing a cheaper headline offer that omits a service you consider essential.
Which details can be changed in the Pak Hajj App?
The Ministry’s September feature update said pilgrims could change package duration and accommodation preferences, including two-bed, three-bed, family-room and shared-room options, and switch between long and short packages.[5]
The update also described these functions:
- print a medical fitness certificate, have it verified by an authorized doctor and upload it again;
- allow overseas Pakistanis to obtain a fitness certificate from a nearby doctor and upload it;
- apply for a Mahram or helper under the hardship quota where eligible;
- request cancellation and a fee refund in unavoidable circumstances.[5]
A feature appearing in the app does not mean every change will remain available after payment or as capacity fills. Check the confirmation screen and saved receipt after making any change.
Fraud warning: where should you pay?
Pay only through the official Pak Hajj App or Hajj Management Portal. The Ministry has repeatedly warned against direct payments to an individual or company, even if that person claims to represent an approved organizer.[1][2][4]
Stop and verify if anyone asks you to:
- send money to a personal bank or mobile-wallet account;
- pay cash without an official portal receipt;
- use a website that is not on the
mora.gov.pkdomain; - share a one-time password, password or full card details in chat;
- pay an “urgent reservation fee” outside the app;
- accept a package that does not appear in your official account.
If an organizer refuses a booking despite capacity appearing in the portal, use the official inquiry or complaint route rather than paying outside the system.
What to do if the app or payment fails
- Do not repeat payment immediately if the first attempt shows pending.
- Save the error, date, time, amount and transaction/reference number.
- Check the application status in the portal.
- Check whether your bank shows a debit or reversal.
- Use the portal’s inquiry route or official Ministry information page for help.[2][6]
- Never give a helper your password or one-time code.
- Resolve the issue before November 20; do not assume a failed attempt reserves a seat.
Private Hajj 2027 deadline
The announced deadline for package selection and payment is November 20, 2026. The Ministry also said it may reallocate any private quota that remains unfilled after the deadline.[3][4]
Complete the process earlier if you have decided to apply. Waiting until the last day increases the risk of a preferred package filling, a document problem or a payment issue that cannot be resolved in time.
