To improve care, the ministry strengthened its coordination with the various institutions of the Royal Commission for the Hajj. The authorities introduced preparatory sessions to explain procedures and practical requirements before departure. In parallel, awareness campaigns were expanded in mosques and national media, supplemented by the distribution of practical guides covering all stages of the journey.

Logistical and human supervision has also been defined with precision. The list of supervisors and accompanying personnel has been validated, ensuring a ratio of one supervisor for 49 pilgrims. On-site movements will be governed by a structured transportation plan. Furthermore, each pilgrim will receive a digital identification card containing their personal and logistical data to streamline procedures throughout their stay.
