Prospective pilgrims from Singapore planning to perform the 2027 Haj will have more travel packages to choose from, following an announcement by the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (MUIS).
In a media statement issued on November 5, MUIS disclosed that it had appointed 10 authorised travel agents to offer 37 approved Haj 2027 travel packages, an increase from the 25 packages approved in 2026.
The new options include an 18-day itinerary, alongside existing 23-day, 25-day and 28-day packages. The shorter option is designed to provide greater flexibility for people balancing work, family and other personal commitments.
MUIS said the expanded package options were intended to make the Singapore Haj pilgrimage 2027 more accessible to a wider segment of the community while accommodating different needs and circumstances.
Singapore has been allocated 900 places for the 2027 Haj by Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Hajj and Umrah. The 900 prospective pilgrims are expected to begin receiving their letters of offer through SMS and email from November 16.
Successful applicants must retrieve their offer letters through the MyHajSG portal, purchase an approved package from an authorised travel agent and complete the required procedures by November 30.
The approved packages range from $13,864 to $21,199, depending on the duration of the trip and room-sharing arrangements. The prices include services such as accommodation arrangements during the peak pilgrimage days, transportation, meals, crowd management, safety provisions and medical services.
However, the package prices exclude airfare on Saudia Airlines, estimated at around $3,300 for an economy ticket before taxes, as well as emergency medical assistance coverage costing $295. MUIS has advised prospective pilgrims to consider additional travel insurance and warned them against unauthorised operators or claims of guaranteed Haj visas outside official channels.
