About JUHF Certification Pvt. Ltd.
JUHF Certification Pvt. Ltd., formerly the Jamiat Ulama Halal Foundation, is a halal certification body based in Mumbai, India. It operates under Jamiat Ulama-E-Maharashtra, the state unit of Jamiat Ulama-E-Hind, a national organisation of Islamic scholars founded in 1919. The body describes itself as a national organisation representing the Muslim community in India and states that its aim is to standardise halal procedures at home and internationally.
Its certification work covers halal food and related products, beef and mutton slaughterhouses, and chicken processing plants, and its published scheme extends across eight product categories ranging from fresh produce and perishable animal products to chemical and biochemical products, cosmetics, and logistics. Two bodies share responsibility for decisions: a Sharia Committee of religious scholars and a Technical Committee of professional specialists.
JUHF publishes its general guidelines, policies, and fee schedule on its website, along with an accreditation and recognition document. It appears on the register of international halal certification bodies maintained by JAKIM in Malaysia.
