 Hajj and Umrah in Iraqi dinars.. Kurdistan companies stop working in dollars

The Kurdistan Region’s Hajj and Umrah Authority decided on Saturday to only accept Iraqi dinars for pilgrims’ travel expenses, rather than dollars as in other Iraqi cities. The cost will be calculated using the Central Bank’s exchange rate, which is 1,320 dinars for every dollar. Registrants will have one week to submit their updates and pay the associated costs. passport information.

Following the chairing of a meeting with the proprietors of Hajj and Umrah offices in the provinces and autonomous administrations of the area, Niyaz Naqshbandi, Director General of Hajj and Umrah in the Kurdistan area, made this decision.

We have instructed the Hajj and Umrah offices to accept payments from pilgrims for a week, from February 11 to February 18, this year. Those who do not pay the fees within this time will not be permitted to do the Hajj this year.

All registrants who do not have a passport or whose passport has expired have been notified by Hajj and Umrah businesses to contact the Passport Department and amend their information within a week.

The expense of the Hajj for residents of the Kurdistan Region is the same as that of residents of the other Iraqi cities.
