Our History and Values
Halal Certification Services (HCS)
Founded in 1987, Halal Certification Services (HCS) is a worldwide recognized Halal certification body. We see ourselves as a connection between Muslim consumers on the one hand and enterprises that want to offer Halal-correspondent products on the other side.
Our duty and responsibility towards the consumer is a product guarantee which completely meets the requirements for the Halal standards. We feel obliged to offer the enterprise that is being certified an easy, safe, and recognized certification which is adjusted to the specific demands.
Proven Process
We at Halal Certification Services work on a proven process termed as Halal Assurance System (HAS). This process is in compliance with ISO 17065 and is established to enable small and large businesses to meet all the Halal requirements. With our Halal Assurance System, we certify that companies create, manufacture, deliver, or transport every product in compliance with Islamic laws, allowing Muslim customers to make purchasing decisions. With this proven process, we are trusted globally by Muslim consumers to buy Halal products and services. Companies can get certified once they clear the entire process and meet all the requirements.
Dedicated Training
We provide proper training for companies aiming to enter the global Halal market in non-Muslim countries. Our food quality insurance specialists and religious scholars offer dedicated training sessions for businesses to understand what is Halal and what is Haram as per Islamic law. This training allows individuals to understand what raw materials they should use to make food products in compliance with Islamic law. Besides raw materials, these pieces of training also develop an understanding of permissible and forbidden meat along with the Halal ways of slaughtering. The training also details proper tools and significant knowledge to ensure that the company meets the Halal requirements.
Recognized Expertise
HCS was established in 1987 and has been supporting and providing high-quality services made in Switzerland for over three decades. With more than thirty-five years of experience, Halal Certification Services has become the first choice of businesses to enter the Halal market in most non-Muslim countries around the world. Besides gaining recognition among companies, we are also the trust of Muslim customers to help them buy products and services that respect their beliefs. Our years of experience and recognized expertise worldwide have enabled us to initiate our German and Spanish offices, which are also now listed with MUI (Indonesia).
Authentic and Halal
Halal is an Arabic term designating any object or an action that is permissible to use or engage in according to Shariah (Islamic law). This term is widely used to certify food items seen as permissible according to Islamic law. Foods or food products that are made from herbal raw materials are considered to be Halal, as long as the Halal requirements were adhered to during the production. Fish, Fruits, and vegetables in their natural state are also considered to be Halal. However, the Halal status can be questioned if ethanol is being used during the processing or if the alcoholic fermentation is already in process.
Global Presence
HCS is a proud member of the World Halal Food Council and is officially recognized by renowned bodies from around the world, such as LPPOM MUI (Indonesia), JAKIM (Malaysia), and MUIS (Singapore). We provide Halal certifications to businesses around the globe after going through a proven process that examines each Halal aspect of the company. Our HCS Certificate is recognized worldwide as a guarantee of professional, trustworthy, and shariah-complaint certification with the highest quality. The collaboration and combined input of world-class scientists and legal and religious scholars from around the world assures a Halal guarantee on the entire value chain of a product.
