Halal committee · LatviaRīga · Baltic

Independent halal certification for the Baltics and Northern Europe

We are the committee that holds one halal standard within Latvian and EU law: accompanying slaughter, abattoir, packaging, labelling and export. Every step is verified against sharī'ah requirements.

Legal foundation
  • EU 1099/2009· slaughter
  • LV PL §48· religious slaughter

What halal means to us

Halal is not a label on a package. It is a continuous chain of decisions – from supplier choice to slaughter conditions to exporter paperwork.

Canonical side

Alignment with the sharī'ah requirements for slaughter, sourcing and admissible ingredients – confirmed by our inspectors.

Legal side

Every step matches the Latvian Animal Protection Law and EU Regulation 1099/2009 on slaughter.

Operational side

Predictable paperwork for the buyer, a clear day-protocol for the abattoir, a verifiable registry for the community.

Ecosystem partners

Partner projects that strengthen the halal chain

ALHALAL works in tandem with specialised platforms. For producers and partners this creates one route from certification to trade and migration support.

International trade

Tradehou.se / Uzbek Bazaar

Tradehou.se is our halal partner through which we certify products for Uzbek Bazaar (Arkan Bazaar) in Rīga. The platform helps producers build transparent international trade routes into Latvia and the EU.

The project combines an Eastern market format with verifiable halal certification standards in Latvia. It serves as practical infrastructure for export and retail supply without gaps between sharī'ah requirements and EU rules.

Migration support

MigrationSupport.lv

MigrationSupport.lv is our migration support partner in Latvia. Their team assists with residence permits, D visas, and relocation for families or businesses.

The service is especially relevant for international teams and founders who need to legalise their presence quickly and build stable operations around new projects.
