Is meat from UK 9301 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.
A cold store keeps chilled or frozen products. It does not cut, prepare or slaughter, so its approval says nothing about how the meat was produced.
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?
- Are halal-certified products stored separately and labelled?
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.
