Hajj Board charging 75K for this year’s pilgrimage

According to the Ghana Hajj Board the deadline for this year’s fee is April 30, 2023.

The Board further noted in its statement that prospective pilgrims have until March 31, 2023 to make payment because the fee may change afterwards based on prevailing exchange rate of the USD after March ending.

“Prospective pilgrims are therefore encouraged to pay early through any of the 42 accredited Hajj agents nationwide in order to secure their slots,” the statement added.
