Understanding Halal and the Importance of MUIS Certification
Halal refers to food that is permissible under Islamic law. MUIS (Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura) is the sole official authority that issues halal certification in Singapore. Since 1978, MUIS certification has been widely recognized in key halal markets such as Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, and GCC countries through MABIMS and GCC-Singapore Free Trade Agreements.
