Who Manages the Halal Cosmetics Process?

Halal formulation assessment, cosmetic safety documentation and notification duties are separate matters. Check cosmetics scope in the HAK register separately from food status.

Verify actual cosmetics issuer scope

A body showing food accreditation must demonstrate relevant current cosmetics scope before the proposed assessment. HAK lists food and cosmetics separately; its accreditation is not a finished-product certificate. Check legal entity, status and annex, then buyer acceptance. No management-system accreditation or consultant contract gives Kayra/QRS halal-cosmetics decision or mark authority.

Programme conditions and worked assessment

Example: A brand uses a body's food-programme logo to claim its cosmetics are approved too. Verify the actual cosmetics programme, current status and scope annex. Identify which products the formula and supplier evidence covers. An INCI name alone does not explain origin. Halal conformity is not a safety or therapeutic guarantee. Documents delivered to a consultant do not add products to a certificate or authorise a logo. The brand must reconcile the actual issuer and product list rather than relying on the organisation's familiar name.

Evidence and authority boundary

HAK accredits the body; the actual issuer decides product conformity. A name in a register does not establish every programme's authority for Kayra/QRS or another entity.
