Domestic pilgrims can obtain Hajj permits through service companies after issuing them. ‘NUSK Card’ is a printed official identity card. This is to distinguish the authorized pilgrims at the holy places. A digital copy of it will be available on the apps ‘Nusk’ and ‘Tavakalna’.
Meanwhile, with the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah making the Nusk card mandatory for pilgrims, the noose on those who come for Hajj without a permit will be tightened.
