The Ministry of Religious Affairs has announced a final three-day extension for the Hajj 2026 Government Scheme second installment. Applicants now have until November 19 to complete their payments. This decision comes after many applicants were unable to pay despite an earlier extension. The ministry emphasized that no further extensions will be given, and those who miss the deadline will have their applications canceled.
Original and Previous Deadlines
The second installment was first due between November 3 and November 10, 2025. Following multiple requests from applicants, the ministry extended the deadline to November 15. Even with this extension, some applicants were still unable to complete their payments on time. The ministry decided to offer this final grace period to ensure everyone has a fair chance to secure their spot in the Hajj 2026 scheme.
Bank Arrangements for Applicants
To help applicants meet the deadline, the ministry instructed all designated banks to remain open on Saturday, November 15. This arrangement was made to allow those who could not pay on regular banking days to deposit their remaining dues. Applicants are encouraged to visit these banks and complete their payments as soon as possible to avoid losing their place.
