Halalregelverket

Halalregelverket, also known as the Halal Regulation System, is a set of guidelines and regulations established to ensure that food products meet the Islamic dietary laws, known as Halal. These regulations are designed to provide consumers with confidence that the products they purchase are Halal-certified, meaning they comply with Islamic dietary laws.

The Halal Regulation System is overseen by various regulatory bodies in different countries. In the European Union, for example, the European Halal Regulation (EU) 2019/1240 is the primary framework governing Halal certification. This regulation outlines the requirements for Halal certification, including the establishment of Halal certification bodies, the procedures for certification, and the labeling of Halal products.

The Halal Regulation System aims to protect consumers by ensuring that Halal products are produced, processed, and packaged in accordance with Islamic dietary laws. This includes requirements for the use of Halal ingredients, the separation of Halal and non-Halal products during production, and the training of personnel involved in the production process.

The certification process typically involves a thorough assessment of the production facilities, ingredients, and processes to ensure compliance with Halal standards. Certified products are then labeled with a Halal certification mark, which indicates that the product has met the required standards.

The Halal Regulation System plays a crucial role in the global food industry, particularly in markets where Islamic dietary laws are significant. It helps to build consumer trust, facilitate trade, and ensure that Halal products are produced and marketed in accordance with Islamic dietary laws.
