Minimum age limit for Hajj pilgrims fixed

The Saudi government has set the minimum age limit for those interested in performing the holy Hajj this year. The minimum age has been fixed at 15 years.

This information was revealed in a notification regarding the minimum age limit for Hajj pilgrims from the Hajj-1 branch of the Ministry of Religion on Wednesday (March 12).

According to the notification, Hajj agencies and banks involved in Hajj activities have been asked to follow the information.

It is being informed that the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah has set the minimum age limit for those interested in performing the holy Hajj in the 2025 season at 15 years, considering the health and safety of children. 

It will be calculated from the date of birth in the Hajj pilgrim's passport.
