What is Halal Certification?
Halal certification is a system that verifies that all stages of a product or service — from raw materials through to the end consumer — comply with Islamic rules (the requirements of being halal, clean, and trustworthy). This is confirmed through audits conducted by an independent, accredited body. Applicable not only to food but to a wide range of sectors including cosmetics, finance, logistics, and tourism, this certificate serves as a mark of trust for approximately 2 billion Muslim consumers worldwide.
