Halaal Accreditation Council of Africa
Registry updated · 21 July 2026
The Accreditation Authority
Accrediting the bodies that certify Halaal in Africa.
HACA does not certify individual businesses. We accredit the certification bodies themselves — auditing their competence, independence, and adherence to published standards, so that a halaal mark carries authority behind it.
How Accreditation Works
Three audiences, one standard.
1. Certification bodies apply
Organisations that certify halaal products, premises, or services submit an application against HACA's published standards.
2. HACA audits & accredits
We assess competence, independence, and procedural consistency, then publish the outcome to the public registry.
3. The public verifies
Media, businesses, and consumers check any certification body's current status in seconds via the Verify tool.
