The Hajj Organizing Agency (Indonesian: Badan Penyelenggara Haji) is an Indonesian government cabinet-level agency in charge of organizing the Hajj. The agency is led by a head, Mochamad Irfan Yusuf, since 22 October 2024 .[1]
Along with the Halal Product Organizing Agency, this agency is the result of a spin-off of the Ministry of Religious Affairs.[2] Previously, hajj organizing affairs were the responsibility of the Directorate General of Hajj and Umrah. Still, since the spin-off, the Directorate General of Hajj and Umrah exists but has transformed into technical policing and standardization for Hajj affairs, not organizing Hajj.[2]
