Saudi Arabia launches comprehensive Hajj package for foreign pilgrims
The package covers four main areas: services at the holy sites, accommodation and hospitality facilities in Makkah and Madinah, transportation, and catering.
Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has announced the launch of a comprehensive package for foreign pilgrims for the 1448 AH Hajj season, bringing essential services from arrival to departure under a single electronic contract, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
According to SPA, the package will be available through the ministry’s “Electronic Path” platform, allowing foreign Hajj affairs offices and authorised agencies to arrange key services for pilgrims within a unified digital framework.
The package covers four main areas: services at the holy sites, accommodation and hospitality facilities in Makkah and Madinah, transportation, and catering.
Optional enrichment services will also be available, enabling foreign Hajj offices and agencies to design programmes tailored to the needs of different groups of pilgrims.
The ministry said the system is intended to provide a clear and flexible contractual framework while integrating the major services required by international pilgrims throughout their Hajj journey.
The initiative forms part of Saudi Arabia’s early preparations for the 1448 AH Hajj season and is aligned with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030 and the Kingdom’s Pilgrim Experience Program, according to SPA.
