Dairy Processing Halal Certification
This page describes an active Prime Halal Certification service scope for the Australian domestic market. Overseas or export acceptance must be confirmed separately for the intended market.
Designed for organisations that need certificate scope to match real products and controls
Certification value depends on the exact product category, ingredient evidence, production process and public claim being assessed.

Milk powder and ingredient producers
Contract dairy processing facilities
Common risk areas

Typical documents required
- Product list and formulation specifications
- Supplier declarations for cultures, enzymes and additives
- Process flow and production-line information
- Cleaning, segregation and changeover records
- Labels, packaging artwork and proposed halal claims
Audit considerations
- Ingredient receiving and storage controls

Examples of products and categories that may fit this scope
The final certificate must still identify the approved organisation, product or category, status, issue date, expiry date and any public limitations.
