Hajj 2027 Pakistan applications through the government scheme are now in the second installment phase. This guide covers the official cost, payment deadlines, the Pak Hajj App, and what comes next. All dates and amounts are verified against the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MORA) announcements.
The Hajj 2027 season falls in 1448 AH. The Ministry of Religious Affairs manages the government scheme, while private operators handle their own packages separately. If you registered for the government scheme, keep reading for the payment schedule and next steps.
Hajj 2027 cost from Pakistan
The Ministry of Religious Affairs announced the government scheme prices in August 2026:

| Short package | 20-25 days | Rs 1,300,000 | Rs 650,000 |
These are the base prices. Room upgrades in Makkah cost extra. One report lists a double-bed room upgrade at approximately Rs 210,000, but check the official portal for exact amounts.
The total quota for the government scheme is 107,526 seats.
Payment schedule for Hajj 2027
Payment happens in two installments:
First installment:
- Collection began: August 18, 2026
- Amount: Half of your package cost
- Payment through: Pak Hajj App, Digital Hajj Portal, or HBL branches
Second installment:
- Collection window: October 5 to October 20, 2026
- Amount: Remaining half of your package cost
- Deadline: October 20, 2026
If you miss the October 20 deadline, your Hajj application is cancelled. The Ministry stated that the deposited amount will be refunded to your account.
Medical certificate requirement
Before paying the second installment, you must upload a medical fitness certificate. The Ministry announced this requirement in early October 2026.
Here is what you need to do:
- Get a medical fitness certificate from an approved doctor.
- Log in to the Pak Hajj App or Digital Hajj Portal.
- Upload the certificate to your application.
- Only then proceed to deposit the second installment.
As of October 7, 2026, around 103,000 pilgrims under the government scheme had uploaded their medical certificates. Make sure yours is uploaded before the October 20 deadline.
How to pay through the Pak Hajj App
The Pak Hajj App is available on both Android and iOS. Here is how to use it:
- Download the app from the Play Store or App Store.
- Log in with your registered credentials (the same account you used during registration).
- Check that your medical certificate is uploaded.
- Select the installment payment option.
- Generate your PSID (Pakistan Single ID for payment).
- Pay through the app or visit any HBL branch with your PSID.
HBL is the sole bank handling government Hajj scheme payments. If you face issues with the app, you can also use the Digital Hajj Portal at hajj.mora.gov.pk.
