Halal Certification
Dec 08, 2020
Halal certification is a document that guarantees that products and services marketed towards Muslim populations meet the requirements of Islamic law. When compliant, these products and services are considered suitable for consumption by Muslims. ;
During the Halal certification process, the quality and features of products must comply with the rules established by the Islamic Council. While there are countless products that can be considered Halal, this certification is mainly directed towards meat, milk, canned food, and some additives. ;
For meat products, Halal certifies that the animals were slaughtered in a single cut, thoroughly bled and their meat has not been in contact with other meat or pork products or slaughtered in any other manner.
Halal certified products are often marked with the Halal symbol or the letter “M.”
