The notification aims to update the procedures and requirements exporters must meet to comply with Halal standards.
This change affects exporters dealing in meat products, particularly those targeting markets where Halal certification is mandatory. The revised process may involve new documentation or altered timelines for compliance. Exporters need to ensure that their certification aligns with the updated requirements to avoid shipment delays or rejections.
