Saudi Arabia then gave an additional quota of 20,000 pilgrims to Indonesia. The additional quota was then divided into two, namely 10,000 for ordinary Hajj and 10,000 for special Hajj. Indonesia therefore used a quota of 213.320 for regular pilgrims and 27,680 for special pilgrims in 2024.

But about the series between there is a quota per quota, 2600 and 7,000 (USD). There are rough calculations, some have multiplied 10,000,” he said. “There are 2.600 to 7,000 dollars per quota. So it depends on the sale and also depends on the trip,” he added. (HAF/HAF)
