Certification SIMPLIFIED

Applicants begin the halal certification process by filling out the form below. This application begins the process of gathering the required information that will be needed to complete the certification process.

After receiving the application, IFANCA will review it, reach out to the applicant, and establish an agreement on the terms of service. At this point, IFANCA will send the applicant a contract, as well as a fee quote or invoice.

IFANCA representatives will follow-up and collect any additional information about the applicant, company, product, and manufacturing facility. IFANCA will also double-check all submitted documents to make sure they’ve been properly completed.

IFANCA will assign a halal technical auditor and an Islamic Affairs expert to schedule, plan, and conduct the audit. A detailed audit plan is sent to the client explaining the elements and process. The audit is then conducted and once completed, a detailed report is sent to the client with any findings. If remediation is required, the auditor will communicate that to the applicant and they will have an opportunity to correct the issues.

After the audit has passed, the file is then reviewed by the Halal Certification Committee. If all items are in order, the Committee will approve the certification and an IFANCA halal certificate will be issued.
