Halal shipment certificates · Saudi Arabia · GCC · Indonesia

What each market needs per shipment

🇸🇦

Saudi Arabia

A certificate of consignment must go with every shipment of products that need halal certification, in addition to your halal certificate. It is issued by an SFDA-recognised halal certification body through the SFDA system.

🇦🇪

UAE & GCC

Your certifier must be recognised in the destination country. Meat and poultry need halal slaughter or halal certificates plus health certificates with each consignment. The updated Gulf halal food standard (GSO 2055-1) proposes shipment certificates for high-risk animal products.

🇮🇩

Indonesia

Under BPJPH Regulation No. 4 of 2026, each halal-regulated shipment needs a Halal Product Assurance Report (LPPH) before customs. Your importer applies, and a BPJPH-appointed inspection body checks the goods at your loading warehouse. Halal certification is mandatory from 17 October 2026.

Also exporting red meat? Australian red meat halal certificates are endorsed under the government’s approved halal program.

How we help

Shipment-ready in four steps

Start early: at least 1–2 weeks before loading for most markets, and 3–4 weeks for Indonesia.

You send the documents

Use the checklist below. Drafts are fine.

Day 1

We check everything

Every document is cross-checked against your halal certificate, labels, batch codes and HS codes. We flag mismatches before loading, not at the border.

Within 1–2 business days

Requests prepared

We prepare your certifier’s shipment certificate request, or your Indonesian importer’s LPPH application pack, and get your warehouse inspection-ready.

Before loading

Ship & file

We coordinate timing with your certifier, importer or inspector, and keep a complete file for every shipment.

Checklist

Documents to have ready for each shipment

  • Commercial invoice and purchase order
  • Packing list (cartons, gross and net weight)
  • Bill of lading or air waybill, vessel or flight number (draft is fine)
  • Container and seal numbers
  • Export or health certificate number (for prescribed goods)
  • Product halal certificate number and expiry (and any market registration number)
  • Batch or lot codes, production and expiry dates (slaughter dates for meat)
  • HS code for each product line
  • Label photos showing the halal logo and certificate number
  • Importer details (for Indonesia: business ID and tax numbers)
  • Certificate of analysis, certificate of origin and safety data sheet where required

What inspectors and certifiers check

  • Documents match the goods and quantities
  • Products fall within the halal certificate scope
  • Certificate or registration number on the packaging
  • HS codes, production codes and production dates
  • Halal label, or non-halal statement where required
  • Contamination risk for animal-based products; slaughter dates for meat

If it doesn’t match: goods can be held, re-exported or destroyed, and certificates or registrations can be suspended.

Cert360 does not issue shipment certificates or LPPH reports. They come from your recognised halal certification body or, for Indonesia, a BPJPH-appointed inspection body. We make sure everything is right before they check.

Shipment FAQs

Do I need a certificate for every shipment to Saudi Arabia?

Yes, for products that require halal certification, a certificate of consignment must accompany every shipment. It is issued by an SFDA-recognised halal certification body.

What about the UAE and other Gulf countries?

Meat and poultry need halal slaughter or halal certificates with each consignment, and the updated Gulf halal food standard proposes shipment certificates for high-risk animal products. We confirm the current rule for your product and destination before you ship.

Does every shipment to Indonesia need an LPPH?

Every shipment of halal-regulated imported products needs one. Your importer applies to BPJPH and pays up front; the inspection date must be set within 30 days of payment and the inspection completed within 15 days. Each report covers one shipment only.

What if our halal certificate doesn’t cover a product?

That product will fail the check. We review your certificate scope against every product line before you book the shipment.

Can you help if we ship regularly?

Yes. We set up a simple per-shipment routine and template file so each consignment takes minutes to prepare, and can do the checks for you on a monthly plan.
