Halal Certification

Halal certification is a process by which a certifying authority verifies that a product, facility, or service complies with Islamic dietary laws, ethics, and principles, making it permissible (halal) for halal consumers.

It applies not only to food but also to non-food items, such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, logistics, and packaging.
