Halal Japan Mobile App

12/7/2021

Trusted by thousands of Muslims living in Japan, Halal Japan App is considered the most informative source on Halal and Muslim-friendly products sold in Japanese market.

The Halal Japan App arose out of frustration with all the long-winded, difficult-to-pronounce ingredients that so many of us Muslims deal with on a daily basis. Hence, the Halal Japan team handles the difficult details so we don't have to. ( Watch On YouTube )
​
Halal Japan Mobile App - A Halal Food Identifier
Halal Japan is one of the most active platforms, providing valuable and much-needed information at your fingertips to help you make better-informed halal dietary choices. Let’s look at the features and benefits of Halal Japan Mobile App and how it operates.

​

Halal Japan Mobile App - A Halal Food Identifier

For years, the Halal Japan Team (a group of religious scholars and PhD holders in medical and chemical departments) has selected products used by Muslims in Japan and checked with the respective manufacturers to identify the origin of the ingredients, and shared the information on their Facebook page. The ingredient descriptions on products are typically written in general terms or Codes. Generally, the team ensures that certain ingredients are plant-based rather than animal-based, which can be considered halal.

The number of Muslims in Japan is rather small, but it has been rapidly increasing in recent years. The demand for more information grew in tandem with the increase in the number of Muslim residents, temporary workers, and tourists. Halal Japan launched the Halal and Muslim-friendly product identifier and as of now (May 2024), the App contains the status of over 25,750 products.

​You can download the App and search for a product you wish to consume by category, shops’ name or brands. If you are in a store, simply scan the barcode of the product and within seconds the App will display the product’s detailed status, including the name in English and Japanese languages, the sources of the ingredients (plant, animal, synthetic), and in which shops/supermarkets it can be purchased.

Halal food stores do not sell everything you might need in your daily life. Some products must be purchased at supermarkets, convenience stores, etc. This app gives you the freedom to shop in a variety of stores.

If the item you are looking for is not listed, take clear photos of the product (front, back, "name, ingredients, contact number, and barcode"), and send them to the team. You will find the product on the list after the app’s next update.

Note that the manufacturers sometimes change the ingredients without notice. If you find such a product, you can report it so the team will be able to double check and delete the item. If you need to report or want to ask a question, visit the profile page in the app and click on Help & Support, which enables you to send an email directly to the team.

​

The Halal Japan App Product Status

​Products status consist of 6 level:
​
  1. H1: HALAL LV1 – Halal certified by an authorized Halal Certification Organization
  2. H2: HALAL LV2 – Free from Haram ingredients and production line is 100% free from Haram animal derivatives products
  3. H3: HALAL LV3 – The production line is shared with non-halal animal ingredients, but the line is cleaned properly before this product produced to prevent the cross contamination
  4. D: DOUBTFUL – The product contains alcohol but the manufacturer doesn’t know about based of the alcohol or percentage of the ethanol or contains doubtful ingredients (like Margarine, Emulsifier, or Shortening etc.) but the manufacturer doesn’t disclose the base of it
  5. HR1: HARAM LV1 – The line contaminated with non-halal animal ingredients
  6. HR2: HARAM LV1 – The product contains Pig based ingredients or non-Halal animal ingredients or alcohol, Mirin etc.
