Halal certification consultant in Miri

Halal certification in Miri

JAKIM administers halal certification nationally, with state Islamic religious departments (JAIN) and councils (MAIN) handling applications at state level. Applications are submitted through the MYeHALAL portal and audited against MS 1500:2019, the Malaysian Standard for halal food.

Businesses in Miri apply through the MYeHALAL portal. Applications for premises in Sarawak are processed with the involvement of the state Islamic religious authority, and audited against MS 1500:2019. The practical work sits before the audit: a Halal Assurance System your team actually follows, ingredient documentation that traces to certified suppliers, and staff who can answer an auditor's questions without prompting.

What the audit actually checks

Most delays in Miri come from the same handful of gaps rather than anything exotic:

• Ingredient traceability: every input traced to a supplier whose own halal status is documented and current
• Physical segregation: storage, production lines and utensils demonstrably separated from non-halal material
• Internal Halal Committee: a named, trained committee with meeting records, not a name on an org chart
• Cleaning protocols: documented samak procedures where required, with verification records
• Staff competence: personnel who can explain the halal control points in their own area

How we work with Miri businesses

We start with a gap analysis against MS 1500:2019, then build the documentation and train the people who have to live with it. The aim is a first-time pass, not a re-audit.

• Gap analysis and compliance assessment
• Halal Assurance System manual and SOP development
• Internal Halal Committee and staff training
• Mock audit and corrective action
• Application preparation and follow-up
