Ministry of Hajj

This Holy Country has the honor and privilege of providing integrated services for the pilgrims of Allah's Inviolable House, for those performing pilgrimage Hajj or Umrah and for all visitors of the Mosque of the Noble Prophet, peace be upon him. Such services begin from the moment pilgrims set foot in the territory of the Kingdom, till their return to their respective countries. Caring for the needs of pilgrims occupies first priority among the Kingdom’s concerns.

As is declared in the Kingdom's Governance Statutes, issued in 1414 H., "The State shall assume the responsibility of serving the two Holy Mosques, shall take full care of pilgrims, and shall reconstruct the two Holy Mosques and provide services thereto. It shall provide security and care for the visitors thereof to enable them to perform Hajj, Umrah, and visit the Prophet's Mosque in peace and tranquility.
