After receiving your application form, our team will review your application for acceptance or refusal.

Your contact person within HQC will provide you with a service quotation or a service agreement contract.

Please register on our Portal to ensure you have an activated account before proceeding.

Your contact person within HQC will provide you with the pre-assessment documents and introduce your applicable HQC Scheme. Guiding Documents can be found here.

If your documentation reviewing is completed and accepted, you will be contacted by HQC to schedule an assessment.

Your assessment will be performed at your facility.

A team of 2 assessors will be present to assess compliance with your applicable HQC Scheme or reference Halal Standard.

The assessment is based on a checklist, observing activities, interviewing, verification of information, and, where applicable, sampling of products for laboratory testing.

After the assessment has been carried out, the lead auditor will provide you with a report.

This report may contain observations or non-conformities. In such cases, you must describe your corrective actions and deliver the evidence of implementation for completion.

If the previous step has been deemed completed, an HQC committee will provide the final review for approval.

If the committee has decided on an approval, your Halal certificate (multiple types applicable) will be issued with a validity ranging from 1 to 4 years.
