CandyKisses:  Hajj and Umrah in Iraqi dinars. Kurdistan companies stopped working in dollars

Erbil

The Hajj and Umrah Authority in the Kurdistan Region decided on Saturday to collect the travel costs of pilgrims in Iraqi dinars exclusively, instead of the dollar, like the rest of the cities of Iraq, provided that the value of the cost is determined at the exchange rate of the Central Bank (1320 dinars per dollar), while the registrants were given one week to pay the costs and update the passport data.

Details:

This decision comes after Niaz Naqshbandi, Director General of Hajj and Umrah in the Kurdistan Region, chaired a meeting with the owners of Hajj and Umrah offices in the provinces and the autonomous administrations in the region.

We directed the Hajj and Umrah offices to receive the amounts from the pilgrims for one week from February 11 to 18, and those who do not pay the costs during this period will lose the right of Hajj this year.

Hajj and Umrah companies alerted all registrars who do not have passports, or expired, to review the Passports Department to update their data within a week.

The cost of Hajj for the people of the Kurdistan region is no different from their peers in the rest of Iraq.
