MUIS FHCB recognition scheme
Going digital!
Same recognition, smarter process
We are pleased to announce the launch of enhanced Foreign Halal Certification Bodies (FHCB) recognition scheme. This upgraded framework introduces new features including the CBA (Certification Body Assessment), an innovative e-Assessment system designed to streamline the evaluation process.
The enhanced FHCB recognition scheme introduces digital submission, fee implementation e-competency assessment, and real time tracking for foreign halal certification bodies seeking recognition to supply halal-certified products to MUIS-certified establishments in Singapore.
Why recognition matters?
