CHALLENGES YOU FACE TODAY

The certification process
breaks before it begins.

PAIN 01
Costly rework after certification failure
Investing tens of thousands only to discover ingredient issues that force complete reformulation mid-process. Time and budget — gone. Certification timelines collapse.
PAIN 02
No in-house halal expertise
Unable to cross-reference ingredient lists against MS1500:2019 & MPPHM Domestik 2020 standard. The first step itself becomes the biggest hurdle — before a single document is filed.
PAIN 03
Cannot plan without knowing critical blockers
No way to identify which ingredients are non-compliant or whether certified alternatives exist — before committing budget to full certification.
PAIN 04
No pre-validation before halal audit
Proceeding to on-site halal inspection without pre-checking ingredients and processes against current standards — an avoidable and expensive risk.

SCHOLAR REVIEW
Every Report Reviewed by Qualified Scholars
Before delivery, all findings are validated by qualified Ustaz — ensuring halal jurisprudential accuracy beyond algorithmic analysis alone.
CASE STUDY · ANONYMOUS
REAL OUTCOME · CLIENT ANONYMOUS
"We were ready to certify all five products. E-USTAZ showed us only two were ready."
A Korean health supplement brand (Seoul-based, 5 SKUs) planned to pursue full halal certification verified under MS1500:2019 & MPPHM Domestik 2020 across their entire portfolio. After E-USTAZ pre-screening, only two products achieved a LIKELY_HALAL grade without reformulation. The client fast-tracked those two products to full certification — entering the Malaysian market months ahead of the original timeline — while reformulating the remaining three in parallel. Total certification cost reduced by over 60%. The pre-screening paid for itself within days.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions,
clear answers.

Is this a guarantee I will pass halal certification?
No. E-USTAZ is a pre-screening tool that identifies your current compliance level and provides a probability score. Final certification is determined by the relevant halal authority after a full audit. Our report helps you prepare, not bypass the process.
What if my ingredients are all in Korean or Japanese?
No problem. Our team handles Korean (한국어), Japanese (日本語), Chinese (中文), Malay, and English ingredient lists natively. Submit in any of these languages and we'll process it as-is.
Can you screen non-food products like cosmetics or supplements?
Yes. We screen food, beverages, health supplements, cosmetics, and personal care products. The same MS1500:2019 framework applies across all categories. Contact us for pharmaceutical or industrial ingredients.
Do you keep my formula confidential?
Absolutely. All submitted ingredient lists, COA reports, and formulation data are NDA-protected and stored on encrypted, access-controlled infrastructure. We never share, publish, or reuse your data. Confidentiality is non-negotiable.
What if my documents are missing — does the 7-day guarantee still apply?
The 7-business-day countdown starts once all required materials are received. If documents are missing, we'll notify you within 24 hours of submission with a clear checklist of what's needed. One round of Q&A and re-screening (up to 2 ingredient changes) is included free.
