Hajj Al-Qur'ah 2027: 1% Reserved for Seniors and Priority Visa Holders
The Egyptian Ministry of Interior has announced the regulations for the 2027 Hajj lottery. A 1% quota of the Hajj visas is allocated for senior citizens and priority applicants, provided they are 70 years or older. Special procedures are to be followed when submitting accompanying persons. Senior citizens and their companions are exempt from the general lottery and will be considered winners by acclamation, while the remaining applicants will be entered into the lottery based on their age priority. It was also clarified that elderly spouses or those with disabilities can bring only one companion from among their relatives up to the fourth degree, provided they meet the required health and age conditions to ensure proper care during the pilgrimage.
