Muscat: Any Haj application outside the electronic registration system will be cancelled, Ministry of Endowment and Religious Affairs has announced.
In an online statement, the ministry said, “The system will cancel your chance unless you join a hajj company via the portal before 1 April 10:25 morning.”
Earlier this month, the ministry announced that Omani pilgrims planning to travel to Mecca to perform Haj can register their application at www.hajj.om, which was open from March 11 to March 22.
Registration conditions include that the applicant must not be younger than 18. For non-Omani residents, their period of stay in the Sultanate must be at least one year, and they must prove that they have not travelled for Haj from the Sultanate earlier.
