Dear compatriots!

In order to perform Hajj in accordance with the rules established by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the pilgrim must have a "Hajj-2024" visa.

We remind you that the government of Saudi Arabia strictly does not allow the implementation of the Hajj event with all other types of visas - Umrah, tourism, business, pilgrimage, etc.

In our republic, the Hajj event is held on the basis of the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers dated June 7, 2017 No. 364 "On measures to further improve the organization and conduct of the Hajj and Umra events". Accordingly, the task of organizing a Hajj event is not within the competence of a travel company or travel agency.
Therefore, we urge you not to trust fraudsters who promise to take you to Hajj with various deceptive methods!

Dear pilgrims embarking on a blessed journey!

We pray to the Creator that the Hajj 2024 season will be exemplary and orderly, beautiful and to your heart's content, that your travels will be safe, that your prayers will be perfect, that your prayers will be answered, and that you will return to our Motherland in good health.

Thank you for your attention!
