Registration for the next Haj season will open from the beginning of September 2024

Registration for the next Haj season, Haj 2025, will open in early September 2024, the General Authority for Islamic Affairs, Endowments, and Zakat (Awqaf) stated on Wednesday. 

The registration will be valid if the pilgrimage applications are filed via the Authority's smart app and website. The pilgrims completed this year's Haj on Tuesday, June 18, with the third day of symbolic stoning of the demon.

UAE only gives Haj permits to Emirati citizens. Expatriates must take use of their home nations' quotas and adhere to their processes.

Pilgrims normally make their trip through approved travel operators, which can be found on the General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowments' website. Operators provide all-inclusive Haj packages that cover visa fees, hotels, transportation, and food.
