Hajj 2027 Philippines: NCMF Registration, Medical Requirements and How to Apply

Updated October 20, 2026. Filipino Muslims preparing for Hajj 2027 can begin gathering their documents and checking official guidance from the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF). At an October 12 stakeholder conference, NCMF representatives described the registration process, medical preparations and travel arrangements. The Philippine Information Agency published the briefing on October 19, 2026. The Philippines has been allocated 6,000 Hajj slots for 2027. This guide distinguishes announced arrangements from dates, prices and medical rules that have not yet been finalized or published.

How to register for Hajj 2027 in the Philippines

• Begin with online registration. NCMF’s Bureau of Pilgrimage and Endowment says prospective pilgrims register online. Those needing help may visit NCMF regional offices and designated Hajj Regional Processing Centers.
• Obtain a payment order. After registration, applicants are instructed to secure the relevant payment order and settle the required amount through the designated bank process.
• Submit travel documents. Applicants submit the required documents through their regional processing center for endorsement to the NCMF Central Office.
• Follow NCMF and Saudi updates. Travel arrangements, Saudi documentation through the NUSUK MASAR platform and accreditation of pilgrim group leaders were among the topics discussed. Follow the latest official instructions before paying or booking.

Not yet confirmed: The October 19 NCMF briefing does not specify an exact 2027 online-registration opening or closing date, a final fee or airfare amount, or a verified direct registration portal URL. Do not rely on unofficial social-media deadlines or payment requests.

Medical screening and health requirements

NCMF officials said medical screening is a key part of preparing for the 2027 pilgrimage. The commission plans preliminary assessments, reviews of applicants’ medical histories, medical clearances, laboratory testing and in-person physical examinations. Saudi Arabia may set health conditions affecting eligibility. However, the briefing did not publish a definitive 2027 list of disqualifying conditions, approved tests, vaccination schedules or medical deadlines. Applicants should obtain current requirements from NCMF and relevant Saudi authorities rather than using older Hajj medical checklists as final 2027 rules.

Travel documents and payment precautions

Prepare valid travel identification and documents requested by the NCMF processing center. The NCMF briefing also discussed accommodation, flights, bank payments and the responsibilities of accredited sheikhs or group leaders. The NCMF’s 2025 anti-fraud advisory advises pilgrims to verify sheikhs and travel agencies with the NCMF Bureau of Pilgrimage and Endowment and avoid paying unauthorized intermediaries. This older warning is useful safety guidance, not a published 2027 payment schedule.
