The Accreditation Authority
HACA accredits the certification bodies that audit halaal compliance across Africa, and certifies businesses directly (restaurants, manufacturers, and retailers) against our published halaal standards, so every halaal mark carries real authority behind it.

How Accreditation Works
Organisations that certify halaal products, premises, or services submit an application against HACA's published standards.
We assess competence, independence, and procedural consistency, then publish the outcome to the Halaal Certified Directory.
Media, businesses, and consumers check any certification body's current status in seconds via the Verify tool.
When you see a HACA accreditation or certification mark, it means that business, or the certification body behind it, has been independently checked against our published halaal standards. You can verify any mark yourself, in seconds.
