The Government of Pakistan has opened the initial phase of Hajj 2027 Pakistan registration, allowing applicants to begin the early registration process. At this stage, applicants are required to complete a mandatory registration process online or through the official mobile application before proceeding to any bank-related formalities.
While the registration itself is free of cost, it is the first and essential step in the overall Hajj application process, which later includes verification, ballot selection, and payment through designated banks.
Phase 1: Mandatory Online Registration
Before visiting any bank branch, applicants must register their intent to perform Hajj through official government channels. Registration can be completed through:
- Pak Hajj Information System (official online portal)
- Pak Hajj Mobile App (available on Android and iOS devices)
Applicants are required to provide basic personal information, including:
- CNIC number
- Registered mobile number
- Email address
At this stage, a passport is not strictly required, but it becomes necessary during later stages such as verification and final booking after the ballot process.
Phase 2: Bank Submission Through Allied Bank
Once official announcements regarding policy, quotas, and balloting are released, applicants can proceed with their final submission through designated bank branches.
Allied Bank (ABL) is among the authorized banks handling Hajj applications. Applicants must visit a designated ABL branch with the required documents once instructed by the official Hajj policy announcement.
Required Documents for ABL Hajj Application
For final submission and processing, applicants generally need:
- Valid CNIC or NICOP
- Machine Readable Passport (MRP) valid until at least November 16, 2027
- Completed application form as per Hajj policy instructions
Applicants are advised to ensure all documents are valid and updated before visiting the bank.
Family Applications and Overseas Pakistanis
The Hajj application system allows for family-based group submissions, which are commonly processed together for convenience and coordination.
Overseas Pakistanis holding NICOP cards are also eligible and must follow the same registration and verification process through official channels.
Important Advisory for Applicants
Authorities have clarified that no fees should be paid during the initial registration phase. The early registration step is completely free, and applicants should avoid unauthorized agents or individuals claiming to offer paid registration services.
All payments, if required, will only be processed through officially designated banks after final confirmation under the Hajj policy.
