Obtaining halal certification involves several steps to ensure that products and processes comply with Islamic dietary and ethical guidelines. Here’s a general breakdown of the process:
- Application Submission
- The Halal Certification journey starts with submitting an application form and providing details about your product, manufacturing process, and ingredients.”
- Documentation Review
- Once your application is accepted, the second step is product approval. During this process, we examine ingredients, sourcing methods, production facilities, and supply chain transparency to ensure compliance with halal standards.
- Inspection & Audit
- After the product approval process is completed, an audit is scheduled at the manufacturing site or warehouse to inspect production processes, hygiene standards, and possible cross-contamination risks with non-halal items.
- Compliance Adjustments (If Required)
- During the audit, if any non-compliant practices or non-conformances are identified, they must be resolved within 28 days.
- Approval & Certification Issuance
- Once compliance is verified, the Halal Management Council grants an official halal certificate, allowing the business to use its label (logo) on its products.
- Ongoing Monitoring & Renewal
- Regular inspections and renewal audits are conducted to ensure ongoing halal compliance.
Halal certification is a process that ensures products and services meet Islamic guidelines. It’s commonly linked to food, but it also applies to things like medicine, cosmetics, skincare, supplements, and restaurants.
To be halal-certified, a product must follow specific rules, including avoiding ingredients like alcohol or anything derived from pork. Businesses seeking certification must also meet certain standards in how they handle and process products.
This certification is important for consumers who follow Islamic dietary laws, helping them make informed choices about what they buy and use. Would you like to know more about how the certification process works?
Halal certification ensures that products, services, and facilities comply with Islamic guidelines, making them permissible for Muslim consumers. It applies to various industries beyond food, including medicine, cosmetics, skincare, supplements, and restaurants. The certification process verifies ingredients, hygiene, and ethical standards to ensure products are free from prohibited substances such as alcohol and pork derivatives. It is important because it builds consumer trust, expands business opportunities, enforces quality standards, and supports international trade in halal-certified industries.
