Web Desk: The Ministry of Religious Affairs mandated that all Hajj 2026 pilgrims complete a digital medical questionnaire through the Pak Hajj mobile application to streamline healthcare services for the upcoming season.
According to a ministry spokesperson, pilgrims must submit the health form by Friday. The questionnaire requires users to provide simple yes or no answers regarding various pre-existing conditions. Specifically, the ministry seeks data on blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, asthma, arthritis, and thyroid issues to ensure integrated medical support during the pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia.
Furthermore, the government updated the mobile platform to include several new features for the convenience of travelers. The application now contains a direct link for printing Hajj visas and hosts the complete flight schedule. Officials confirmed that the first Hajj flight remains scheduled for departure on April 18, dismissing previous rumors regarding potential cancellations.
The ministry continues to add information to the Pak Hajj app in phases to maintain clear communication with the public. Consequently, authorities advised pilgrims to monitor the application regularly for official announcements and individual flight details. This digital transition aims to improve the overall coordination of logistics and emergency medical response for thousands of Pakistani citizens traveling abroad.
