How to verify a certificate issued in Spain
Confirm the issuing body appears on JAKIM's current recognition list (this page reflects the gazetted list as at 30 January 2026), then check the certificate against the certifier's own register and, for the Malaysian market, the official JAKIM halal portal. Recognition can be withdrawn, so always verify at source before relying on a certificate.
