Along with the Halal Product Assurance 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 within the ministry. 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]

On 11 July 2025, Indonesian government announced plan to elevate the agency into full-fledged Ministry of Hajj and Umrah in 2026.^[3][4] On 8 September 2025, the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah officially formed,^[5] ending the agency.
