What is Halal Licence & Certification?
Halal certification confirms that a product, ingredient or service complies with halal standards throughout sourcing, manufacturing, storage and handling. It is issued by a recognised halal certification body after documentation review and an audit.
The right certification body depends on your product, market and buyer requirements. Some export markets require certification from a specific accredited body.
