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