Halal Certification
Get your food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical products certified Halal to access Middle Eastern markets and global Muslim consumers.
Overview
Halal Certification guarantees that products (food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals) are manufactured, processed, and packed in strict adherence to Islamic dietary and hygiene laws. This means the products are completely free from any forbidden ingredients (like pork, alcohol, or non-halal animal derivatives) and have not been contaminated during processing. Securing a Halal certificate is critical for businesses looking to export to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and cater to the massive global Muslim consumer base.

Frequently Asked Questions
Helpful answers to common regulatory inquiries.
Who issues the Halal Certificate in India?▼
Unlike FSSAI, Halal certification is not issued by a government body. It is issued by independent, internationally recognized Islamic organizations like Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind Halal Trust or Halal India.
Can cosmetics or pharmaceuticals apply for Halal certification?▼
Absolutely. Many cosmetics and pharmaceuticals use animal-derived ingredients (like gelatin or glycerin) or alcohol. Halal certification ensures these products use permissible plant-based or synthetic alternatives.
How long is the certificate valid?▼
Generally, Halal certificates are issued for one year and must be renewed annually, which may involve a re-inspection.
