Filipino jamaah haji apply through the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) or accredited private Haji operators. Applicants must submit a valid passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate (if applicable), and medical clearance. NCMF coordinates with the Saudi Embassy for visa processing. Biometric data is collected at the Saudi Embassy in Manila or consular offices in Mindanao.
Pilgrims can travel through NCMF's government-organized Haji program or through private Haji operators accredited by NCMF. A list of accredited operators is published annually on the NCMF website. Pilgrims should verify accreditation status and check operator reviews before committing. Both options are subject to Saudi Ministry of Haji approval.
Many Filipino Muslims are from Mindanao and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region. NCMF provides pre-departure orientation seminars in both Manila and Mindanao. Pilgrims should bring Philippine peso for initial expenses and exchange to Saudi riyals upon arrival. Filipino community support groups are active in Mekkah and Madinah during Haji. The humidity in the Philippines provides some preparation for Mekkah's climate, though temperatures are significantly higher in Arab Saudi.
