The "Hajj Management Committee" was formed and presided over by King Faisal Bin Abdulaziz when he was a prince.

A committee of eighteen members interested in Hajj affairs was formed.

The founding King Abdulaziz Bin Abdulrahman Al Saud issued a decision to assign the responsibility of caring for Hajj and pilgrims to the Shura Council, reconstituting the Hajj Committee, and selecting permanent members for it.

King Abdulaziz Al Saud ordered the replacement of the Hajj Committee with an authority called the "Supreme Hajj Authority."

King Abdulaziz Al Saud ordered the establishment of the "General Directorate of Hajj Affairs" to provide services to pilgrims and to develop and implement projects related to the development and reform of Hajj.

The Shura Council approved the establishment of the Hajj Board of Directors.

The General Directorate of Hajj was reorganized and restructured.

The General Directorate of Hajj was developed and supported, along with the establishment of its departments in Makkah al-Mukarramah, al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, and Jeddah.

The Ministry of Hajj and Endowments was established to oversee the affairs of Hajj, endowments, the Two Holy Mosques, and mosques.

The endowment sector was separated from the Ministry of Hajj, resulting in it becoming the "Ministry of Hajj."

The specific tasks of the Ministry of Hajj were defined in the Council of Ministers Resolution No. (179).

A royal order was issued to rename the ministry as the "Ministry of Hajj and Umrah," implementing the state's policy in organizing Hajj and Umrah affairs and serving pilgrims and Umrah performers.

A new organizational structure for the ministry was issued to enhance the development of a structure that supports the achievement of its strategy.
