02 / VERIFY
Four checks before you rely on it
Use these with any Halal certificate, ours included.
2 · Legal entity
The certified company name and registration number must match the seller on your contract and invoice.
3 · Facility
The certified address must be where your rice is processed and packed. If part of an order is packed with an approved partner, ask us to state it in writing before you order.
4 · Validity and scope
The shipment date must fall inside the validity period, and your variety must be on the product list.
03 / YOUR MARKET
Recognition in your market: what we can and cannot tell you
Check acceptance in your own country.
The certificate lists the bodies that GHC states recognise its certification: JAKIM (Malaysia), BPJPH (Indonesia), GAC (GCC), CICOT (Thailand), MUIS (Singapore), EIAC/MoIAT (UAE) and the World Halal Council. Acceptance rules differ by country and by product category, and they change. We do not claim that one certificate is automatically accepted everywhere. Ask your importer or authority what they require for rice in your market; we will send the certificate and answer questions about our production.

06 / BUYER QUESTIONS
Questions buyers ask
Short answers for purchasing and compliance teams.
Is rice Halal by nature?
Rice is a plant product. The certificate matters because it covers the facility, handling and cross-contact controls under a recognised standard; some buyers and markets ask for it, others do not.
Does the certificate cover every shipment?
Only rice produced and packed within the certified facility and scope, within the validity period.
Can I see the certificate before I order?
Yes. Ask Brian or John, or open the certificate from this page.
