  • Halal Certification is a conformity assessment activity that guarantees that products and services are produced in accordance with technical criteria and Islamic values in the entire chain starting from raw materials to presentation, and that they are delivered to consumers in a halal and healthy way by ensuring traceability. With this activity, LHUHAM audits, evaluates, certifies and monitors the conformity of products or services to the relevant Standards and Metrology Institute of Islamic Countries (SMIIC) standard within the framework of Islamic rules in a consistent, impartial, independent, transparent manner. PRINCIPLES, VALUES and PROCEDURES The Halal Conformity Assessment, i.e. Halal Certification System of the Center, which will start its activities in this field as of 2022, has a quality infrastructure based on the international standard “OIC/SMIIC 2 Halal Conformity Assessment-Requirements for Organizations Performing Halal Certification” prepared by the Standards and Metrology Institute of Islamic Countries (SMIIC). Thus, the system is professionally executed, including the operations defined for the relevant certification processes in ISO/IEC 17021-1, ISO/IEC 17065, ISO/TS 22003, etc. standards referred to in this standard. LHUHAM is a Muslim legal entity and has a deep conviction that halal products/services/processes and/or management systems should be offered to Muslims in an appropriate manner and takes all relevant measures to ensure that Islamic responsibility is fulfilled in all its activities. Carefully checks the traceability of the audited organization within the scope of the certification application. It considers the relationship of the received batches of materials, components and intermediate products to the final product, the reprocessing of materials/products, the distribution of the final product, and questions the effectiveness of the traceability system and the measures taken to ensure that the inputs, production and final product do not coexist with non-halal products/services. LHUHAM effectively applies the principles of impartiality, confidentiality, transparency and honesty to all assessment processes through risk management.

    1. Risks to impartiality arising from managerial activities, personnel, resources, finance, marketing activities and external influences (relations with institutions/organizations, protocols/contracts, etc.) during halal conformity assessment activities are identified and analyzed. Possible or existing risks are taken under control with the knowledgeable and experienced Impartiality Protection Committee members representing the relevant stakeholders/parties.
    2. In order to ensure the confidentiality of the information obtained at all stages of the service, the commitment of all personnel involved in halal certification activities on behalf of LHUHAM regarding confidentiality and impartiality is obtained. In addition, access to the records of the organization is prevented by non-responsible persons with a secure archive environment. Protection of copyright and patent rights is also guaranteed in practices aimed at protecting confidentiality. Information about the organization obtained from external sources (for example, from complainants or regulatory authorities) is conducted in confidence.
    3. Observes the principle of transparency by offering halal conformity assessment services to all applicants operating in the food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and service sectors. The relevant documents and fee schedule are made public.
    4. Potential conflicts of interest and operational risks are identified, measures are taken and risks are analyzed. In case risks occur, the identified measures are implemented.

    Therefore, LHUHAM guarantees the provision of halal products/services to consumers with its risk-oriented operational control system and ensures trust in producers/service providers. QUALITY, CLEANliness/HYGIENE AND HEALTH = TRUST IN PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Halal Conformity Assessment is carried out according to LHUHAM Certification Criteria based on OIC/SMIIC halal standards. These standards include the requirements of the referenced standards such as HACCP, ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System/ ISO 22716 Cosmetics - Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)/ ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems/ ISO 14001. In addition to these, special issues that will increase the effectiveness of the applicant organization in the halal sector have been determined by LHUHAM's academic and experienced experts and defined as requirements within the halal certification program. Therefore, LHUHAM mediates the provision of safe products/services to consumers through a halal conformity assessment that includes clean and healthy, i.e. tayyipness. Thus, for manufacturers/service providers certified under the relevant OIC/SMIIC standard; LHUHAM Halal Certificate of Conformity is a quality indicator, a means of superiority and prestige that removes barriers in national and international trade.
