If you're a business looking to certify your products as Halal, the Halal and Haram Distinction Development Initiative (HDI) — formerly the Halal Certification Authority (HCA) — offers a straightforward path to certification.

The process begins with a formal application, followed by document review and, where necessary, an on-site inspection to assess compliance with Islamic Shariah requirements and applicable quality standards. Certified products undergo laboratory analysis to confirm both religious permissibility and general safety. Once approved, certification is valid for one year, with a simplified renewal process involving documentation review and periodic inspection.

To begin your application, reach out via the contact details listed on our site, or submit your application form directly. Our team will guide you through each step.
