Hajj 2027 pilgrims face deadline as non-payment could cancel applications

Second installment payment schedule

The Ministry of Religious Affairs has issued an important announcement for people applying for Hajj 2027 under the government scheme. According to the ministry’s spokesperson, applicants can submit their second installment of Hajj dues between October 5 and October 20.

Applicants must complete the payment within the announced period to keep their Hajj applications valid. The ministry has advised all government-scheme pilgrims to complete the required steps before the deadline.

Payments to be made through digital channels

The second installment can be paid through the Pak Hajj mobile application or the official digital Hajj portal. Applicants should use these digital channels to submit their dues within the specified dates.

The ministry has stressed that meeting the payment deadline is essential for applicants who wish to continue with the Hajj process. Those who fail to pay by October 20 will have their applications considered cancelled.

Unpaid applications may be cancelled

According to the ministry’s spokesperson, applications will be cancelled if applicants do not deposit the second installment within the deadline. However, the amount already deposited will be returned to the applicant’s bank account after cancellation.

Applicants should therefore check their payment status and complete the required formalities on time. Missing the deadline could affect their participation in the government Hajj scheme for 2027.

Medical fitness certificate is compulsory

The ministry has also made it compulsory for applicants to upload their medical fitness certificates before paying the second installment. The certificate must be uploaded through the Pak Hajj application or the digital Hajj portal.

The spokesperson has urged all government-scheme applicants to complete the medical and payment requirements before the deadline. Applicants should avoid waiting until the final day to prevent delays or problems with their applications.

The October 20 deadline is an important step for people planning to perform Hajj under the government scheme in 2027. Applicants need to arrange their payments and upload their medical fitness certificates on time to avoid cancellation.

Using the official digital channels and checking that all requirements have been completed can help applicants avoid last-minute problems. The ministry’s announcement highlights the importance of following the official schedule carefully.
