No Hajj 2027 Balloting in Pakistan: How to Check Your Application Status
There is no Hajj 2027 balloting in Pakistan. Seats go first come, first served. Check your status at hajj.mora.gov.pk and see when the second instalment is due.
There is no balloting for Hajj 2027 in Pakistan, so there is no balloting result to wait for. Government scheme seats go first come, first served to people who pay. You check your own status at hajj.mora.gov.pk/inquiry with your CNIC, passport or application number and date of birth.
Every year people search for the Hajj balloting result in the weeks after applying. For Hajj 2027 that search leads nowhere, because the Ministry of Religious Affairs has dropped the draw. The Hajj Policy and Plan 2027 to 2030 says selection is made on a first come, first served basis.
We read the policy, the ministry's Hajj 2027 advertisement and its later notices on mora.gov.pk on 27 September 2026. Several of the notices are Urdu images, and we read them directly. We also opened the status check page on the Hajj Management System.
Hajj 2027 has no balloting
The Hajj Policy 2027 to 2030 says pilgrims are selected first come, first served, from the waiting list and new applications. The ministry's Hajj 2027 advertisement carries the same line at its top. No computer draw is planned.
The policy sets out the order in plain terms. People who registered and deposited 10 per cent of the estimated cost sit on a waiting list. They get first right when applications open for the year they chose. New applicants come after them, in the order they apply and pay.
Anyone who misses out because the seats run out is not dropped. The policy places them on the waiting list with preference in later Hajj seasons, provided they have made that deposit.

How to check your Hajj 2027 application status
Open hajj.mora.gov.pk/inquiry, the ministry's Application Status Inquiry page. Enter your group application number, CNIC or passport number, add your date of birth, answer the small sum and search. The page shows your pre-registration record.
- Go to hajj.mora.gov.pk and click "Application Inquiry", or open hajj.mora.gov.pk/inquiry directly.
- Type one of these: your group application number, your CNIC, or your passport number.
- Pick your date of birth from the calendar.
- Answer the security sum, for example 8 plus 10.
- Click "Search Application" and read your record.
We opened the page on 27 September 2026 and it was working. We did not search a real record, because that needs someone's CNIC and date of birth. You can also sign in to the Hajj Management System with your email, mobile number or CNIC and see your application there.
The Pak Hajj app, built by the National Information Technology Board (NITB), shows the same account on your phone.
Where the Hajj 2027 process stands now
The first instalment, half the package price, has been collected since 18 August 2026. The ministry's notice puts the second instalment in the first week of October. Seats are limited, and the ministry stops taking dues once they are full.
The ministry's advertisement, posted on 16 August 2026, sets out the government scheme. These figures are read from the notice itself.
| Item | Government scheme, Hajj 2027 |
|---|---|
| Long package, about 38 to 42 days | Rs 1,200,000 |
| Short package, about 20 to 25 days | Rs 1,300,000 |
| Seats, long package | 77,526 |
| Seats, short package | 30,000 |
| First instalment | 50% of the package, from 18 August 2026 |
| Second instalment | First week of October 2026 |
| Two-bed room, Makkah only | Rs 210,000 a person extra |
| Three-bed room, Makkah only | Rs 70,000 a person extra |
The notice says collection of dues stops as soon as the seat numbers are filled. That line does the work a ballot used to do. Paying on time is what keeps your place, so do not wait for a result.
The notice does not give the exact date or amount of the second instalment. With half paid first, it should cover the rest of your package and any room upgrade, but check the figure in the app. The full Hajj 2027 cost and packages are set out separately.
How to pay the Hajj instalments
Pay only through the Pak Hajj app or the portal at hajj.mora.gov.pk. The ministry's notice lists three ways: a 1Link PSID from any bank account, a debit or credit card, or a digital bank challan printed from the app and paid at an HBL branch.
- 1Link PSID: a payment code you pay from your own bank's app or branch.
- Bank card: a debit or credit card, inside the app or portal.
- Digital challan: print it from the app or portal and pay at the nearest branch of Habib Bank Limited, the ministry's banking partner.
The policy says all Hajj dues go into designated bank accounts through formal banking channels only. No cash, and no payment to a person. If anyone offers to "confirm your seat" for cash, walk away.
The notice also sets two conditions. You must be registered on the Pak Hajj app or portal to move to the second stage. And your passport must be valid until at least 16 November 2027.
The private Hajj scheme works the same way
Private scheme pilgrims also book through the Pak Hajj app, choosing from approved companies, with no draw. A ministry notice of 11 September 2026 says the private package can be paid online in three equal instalments until 20 November 2026.
The advertisement says private pilgrims pick a package from 25 approved companies in the app. Payment goes only through the app or portal. The ministry's advertisement says it is not responsible for payments made any other way.
The Hajj Policy 2027 to 2030 splits the quota 60 per cent government scheme and 40 per cent private.
