Majilis Ugama Islam Singapura (Muis), the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore, has appointed five individual travel agents and six consortium travel agents to offer Hajj packages for Hajj 1436 (2015). 

All packages were proposed through the Offers of Haj Package 1436H / 2015 tender, which was open from 11 March to 31 March 2015. The signing of the Haj Package Agreement 1436H / 2015 between Muis and the appointed agencies was held on 12 May 2015 at the Singapore Islamic Hub. 

A total of 27 Hajj packages are available to pilgrims this year. Ten Hajj packages ranging from 15 to 25 days, defined as the short trip, and 17 Hajj packages provide 29 to 37 days (long trip). Prices range from S$6,990 to S$14,890. All packages include emergency medical assistance but exclude airfare and prevailing taxes. 

Muis advises intending pilgrims to evaluate packages carefully based on their needs and affordability. They are strongly advised to read and understand the contents of the Haj Purchase Contract and the agencies have been requested to explain the contract to intending pilgrims before they are asked to sign it.
