Is meat from GB 4559 halal?
The code shows which plant slaughtered, cut or packed the meat, not whether it is halal. Look for a halal logo from a named certifier, such as HMC or HFA, or ask the brand which certifier approves the product. More in halal meat codes.
What this approval means for halal
A slaughterhouse approval means animals are killed and dressed here. This is the step where halal is decided: how the animal is slaughtered, whether it is stunned first, who performs the slaughter and which certifier monitors it.
What to ask before you rely on it
- Is the slaughter here halal certified, and by which body?
- Are animals stunned before slaughter, and does your certifier accept that?
- Are halal and non-halal animals kept apart?
Ask the brand on the pack, or the halal certifier named on it. Plants rarely publish this, so a written answer from the brand is the best evidence.
