Our Story
Update. Verify. Switch. Support.
HalalCodeCheck is building the full halal consumer shopping experience — food, meat, and cosmetics — for Muslims worldwide.
The Problem
Every time a Muslim shops, they face the same question: is this halal? But the challenge looks completely different depending on where you are in the world.
EU: Cryptic E-Codes
Hundreds of additives hidden behind E-numbers. Is E471 halal? What about E120? Most people don't know — and most databases are incomplete.
❌ 450+ codes. Most tools cover fewer than 100.
US & Canada: Ingredient Names
No E-codes here — just long ingredient lists most people can't decode. Is "mono and diglycerides" halal? What about "L-cysteine"?
❌ No single tool covers ingredient names by region.
UK: Meat Certification Codes
Halal meat in the UK comes with certification marks and slaughter codes that most consumers don't understand. What does HMC vs HFA mean for your family?
❌ No accessible guide to UK halal meat standards.
Cosmetics: Hidden Ingredients
Animal-derived ingredients hide in plain sight in skincare, makeup, and personal care products — under names most people have never heard of.
❌ Cosmetics halal verification is almost non-existent.
No single tool has solved this. Until now.
We built HalalCodeCheck because every Muslim consumer deserves a tool that works wherever they are, whatever they're buying — food, meat, or cosmetics — without compromising their privacy.
The Muslim community deserves tools built with them — not at them.
