Halal Food Resources in the United States

Find an outside halal food directory and learn how to check certification and U.S. origin claims on packaged products.

Find halal food through an existing directory

Zabihah lets you search by city. Its listing policy explains that a listing can cover a restaurant that reports serving a single qualifying meat dish. Check the listing details and confirm what is currently offered with the business if it matters to your plans.

Check a packaged product

Start with the exact product and variant. Look for a certifier’s name or mark on the package, then check the certifier’s current product listings. IFANCA publishes halal certification resources. Its product locator explains how to verify individual products.

For labels under its oversight, USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service explains that a certified halal claim identifies the certifying organization.

Halal products made in the United States

Check certification and country of origin separately. A certifier’s mark tells you where to look for certification details. For origin, look for the manufacturer’s statement about where the particular product is made and read any qualifiers about imported ingredients. The FTC’s Made in USA consumer guide explains the standard for an unqualified U.S. origin claim.
