The Commissariat du Hadj in Cote d'Ivoire announced that online registrations for the 2027 Hajj will begin on October 1, 2026, at 9:00 AM on the website www.monhadj.ci. This initial phase allows candidates from state and private contingents to identify themselves and provide necessary information for registration. Imam Bachir Ouattara, the Commissioner-General of the Hajj, urged applicants to anticipate their steps and prepare their documents in digital format before the platform opens.
To register, applicants will need to provide a digital identity photo on a white background in JPEG format, a copy of a valid passport until at least November 15, 2027, in JPEG or PDF, and a residence certificate dated within the last three months for residents or proof of residence for diaspora candidates. According to Saudi directives, each candidate must also provide the identity of a potential replacement in case of disability, including their names, surnames, passport number, and expiration date.
The second phase of registration will begin on October 8, 2026, with pre-pilgrimage medical consultations at approved health centers. Only candidates declared fit will receive the required medical certificate. From October 12, candidates will need to pay pilgrimage fees and provide biometric fingerprints at regional centers after validating their files. For the state contingent, the Hajj cost is set at 3,250,000 FCFA per person.
Imam Bachir Ouattara warned applicants to be vigilant about fake forms and misinformation circulating on social media, advising them to rely on official channels. The Ivorian quota for the 2027 Hajj is 10,000 pilgrims, including 3,000 from the private contingent. Applicants must prepare required documents and information to ensure a smooth registration process.
The registration process is designed to ensure that all candidates are properly identified and equipped for the pilgrimage. By providing detailed requirements and a clear timeline, the Commissariat du Hadj aims to facilitate a successful and organized Hajj experience for Ivorian pilgrims. The online platform will enable efficient data collection and management.
The Hajj is a significant event for many Ivorian Muslims, and the registration process is an essential step for those wishing to participate. The Commissariat du Hadj is responsible for coordinating the pilgrimage and ensuring that all logistical and administrative arrangements are in place. This includes working with Saudi authorities to secure necessary permits and quotas.
With the registration process set to begin, prospective pilgrims are advised to act promptly and follow the specified guidelines to ensure their participation in the 2027 Hajj.
