Legal Hajj agencies having less than 97 pre-registered pilgrims will complete their quota related procedures mutually by transferring the registered pilgrims to lead agency concerned, the ministry said in the notification.
After completing the transfer procedures, the list of Hajj agencies and number of agency-based pilgrims (along with guides and munajjem) will be sent to create UserID in e-Hajj system in Saudi Arabia and time will not be extended for completing this procedure, said the ministry.
The ministry said replacement activities will begin after sending information about agency-based pilgrims to Saudi Arabia.
Agencies whose UserID and passwords are now inactive due to suspension of licence on various reasons will only be able to transfer their registered pilgrims to legal agencies by May 15.
UserID and passwords of these agencies will remain inactive previous, it added.
