PUTRAJAYA: The Domestic Trade and Cost of Living MInistry has amended the Second Schedule of the Trade Descriptions (Certification and Halal Marking) Order 2011 by adding new overseas halal certification bodies that are recognised by the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim).
Its minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the amendment aligned with Jakim's decision to recognise five additional foreign halal certification bodies this year, comprising two from Russia and one each from Brazil, Mongolia and Uruguay.
