If you are planning to perform Hajj in 2027, the single most important step you can take right now is completing your pre registration. Bangladesh receives a fixed Hajj quota from the Saudi government every year — and seats are allocated strictly by serial number. The earlier you register, the better your position in the queue.
This guide covers everything you need to know about Hajj pre registration in Bangladesh — who is eligible, what documents are required, how much it costs, the complete step-by-step process, and why waiting is the biggest mistake a prospective pilgrim can make.
Note: Jetway Hajj Group completes Hajj pre registration on the same day at our Purana Paltan, Dhaka office — provided documents are submitted before 1 PM. Walk-in, no appointment needed.
What Is Hajj Pre Registration in Bangladesh?
Hajj pre registration is the official government process through which Bangladeshi Muslims enroll in the national Hajj database managed by the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MORA). It is a mandatory first step — without completing pre registration, you cannot be considered for a Hajj package, visa, or seat allocation.
The process was introduced to bring transparency and fairness to Hajj seat allocation. Since the number of applicants in Bangladesh far exceeds the available quota every year, pre registration ensures pilgrims are assigned serial numbers in the order they apply — and called forward when their number is reached.
Key facts:
• Pre registration is valid for 2 years from the date of submission
• It secures your position in the official queue — not a guaranteed Hajj seat
• Government fee: BDT 30,000 per person — adjusted against your final Hajj package cost
• Must be completed through a Ministry of Religious Affairs authorized Hajj agency
• The system is managed through the official portal: www.hajj.gov.bd
Who Is Eligible for Hajj Pre Registration in Bangladesh?
Any Muslim citizen of Bangladesh who is physically and financially capable of performing Hajj is eligible to apply. There are no age restrictions for pre registration, though conditions apply for minors.
• Must be a Muslim citizen of Bangladesh with a valid Bangladeshi passport
• Adults (18+) must hold a valid National ID Card (NID)
• Minors (under 18) require a passport and birth certificate — a parent or guardian must register alongside them
• Non-Resident Bangladeshis (NRBs) can pre register using their Bangladeshi passport and NID copy
Note: Priority in quota allocation is typically given to first-time pilgrims — but there is no restriction on how many times a Bangladeshi citizen can perform Hajj.
Documents Required for Hajj Pre Registration in Bangladesh
Prepare these documents before visiting your Hajj agency. Incomplete submissions cause delays — and in a quota-limited system, every day matters.
For Adults (18 and above)
• National ID Card (NID) — colour scanned copy or original for verification
• Valid Bangladeshi passport — colour scanned soft copy
• Government fee: BDT 30,000 per person
• Active mobile number — used for official government communications
For Minors (Under 18)
• Valid Bangladeshi passport — colour scanned soft copy
• Birth certificate — colour scanned soft copy
• Parent or guardian's mobile number
Important: Each registration requires a unique email address — the same email cannot be used for multiple pilgrims. Bring original documents to the agency for verification.
Hajj Pre Registration Fee in Bangladesh — How Much Does It Cost?
The official government fee for Hajj pre registration in Bangladesh is BDT 30,000 per person, payable at the time of submission through an authorized agency.
• Not an extra charge: The BDT 30,000 is deducted from your total Hajj package cost during final registration
• Valid for 2 years: If you cannot perform Hajj in 2027, your registration carries over to 2028 automatically
• No agency fee: Jetway Hajj Group charges no additional fee for completing your pre registration
• Refund policy: Subject to government guidelines at time of withdrawal — but the 2-year validity means withdrawal is rarely necessary
How to Complete Hajj Pre Registration in Bangladesh — Step by Step
1. Prepare your documents — NID (adults) or passport and birth certificate (minors), recent photograph, unique email and active mobile number
2. Visit an authorized Hajj agency — Jetway Hajj Group, 4th Floor, Noakhali Tower, 55/B Purana Paltan, Dhaka 1000. Open Saturday to Thursday, 9 AM – 6 PM. No appointment needed
3. Submit your documents — The agency team verifies your documents and enters your information into the official Hajj portal at www.hajj.gov.bd
4. Pay the government fee — BDT 30,000 per person, processed through the official system. Keep your receipt as proof
5. Receive your serial number — Official confirmation issued with your unique serial number. Jetway completes same-day if documents arrive before 1 PM
6. Wait for final registration — Ministry of Religious Affairs announces final Hajj 2027 registration dates typically in late 2026. You will be contacted based on your serial number to complete booking and pay the remaining package cost
The earlier you register, the lower your serial number — and the higher your priority for Hajj 2027 seat allocation.
Why You Should Complete Hajj Pre Registration in Bangladesh Now
Many pilgrims delay pre registration assuming there is plenty of time. Here is why that is a costly mistake:
• Quota fills fast: Bangladesh's annual Hajj quota from Saudi Arabia is strictly limited. When it fills, no further registrations are accepted for that year regardless of how much you are willing to pay
• Serial number determines your year: A lower serial number means higher priority. A higher number may push you to 2028 or later
• Prices rise closer to Hajj: Airfares and hotel rates near Haram increase significantly as the season approaches. Early registration gives you more time to plan and budget
• 2-year validity means no risk: Register now and if you cannot perform Hajj in 2027, your registration automatically covers 2028. You lose nothing by registering early
• Time to fix document issues: Early registration gives you time to correct any passport, NID or photograph problems without the pressure of a closing deadline
