The Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs coordinates الحج registration. Citizens and residents apply through authorized الحج operators. Requirements include valid passport, vaccination certificates (meningitis ACWY mandatory), medical fitness report, and biometric data.
الحج travel companies are licensed by the Ministry of Endowments. Qatar Airways operates special الحج charter flights. The ministry website publishes approved operators with package categories ranging from economy to VIP.
Qatar has a relatively small الحج quota due to its population size. Priority is given to first-time الحجاج and elderly applicants. The Qatari government provides generous subsidies for citizens performing الحج. Overland travel via المملكة العربية السعودية became easier after the reopening of the Salwa border crossing.
