The Maison du Hadj manages Hac registration in partnership with licensed operators. Pilgrims register at regional Hac offices. Requirements include valid passport (6+ months), vaccination certificates (yellow fever, meningitis ACWY), medical examination, and registration fees.
Licensed Hac operators register with the Maison du Hadj. Both government-organized and private operator packages are available. The Maison du Hadj website and offices provide the list of approved companies for each season.
Mali follows the Maliki school of jurisprudence. French and Bambara are the primary languages — hacilar should prepare for Arabic-language environments. Mali has a strong tradition of communal Hac savings groups (tontines) to fund hac ibadeti. Yellow fever vaccination is mandatory for all travelers.
