Characteristics of MPJA

About us

about mpjaWelcome to the Muslim Professional Japan Association (MPJA), one of Japan’s leading Halal certification bodies (HCB).
Since 2013, MPJA has been committed to helping halal consumers through the issuance of Halal certification and advocacy on spreading Halal within Japan.

As one of our main services, MPJA provides Halal certification to the local industries.
Our logo, the Fuji mark with the Arabic word ‘Halal’ helps consumers to select goods, assuring, and guarantee them that what they buy is clean, safe, and good to consume.

Our Mission

  • Spread awareness and knowledge about the Muslim community to the Japanese society
  • Provide legitimate and accurate Halal certification based on international standards
  • Bridging Japan with the Muslim world by creating the relation of producers and consumers’ needs in Halal services.
  • Support creating a friendly trading market in the various fields between Muslims and Japanese, on both local and global levels.

Our Mutual Recognition

The greatest strength of MPJA lies in its industry-leading halal certification standards. MPJA has already built a strong track record of certifications for exports to Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand.

MPJA’s halal certification standards are officially recognized (mutually certified) by two of the most stringent and authoritative halal bodies in the Islamic world: Malaysia’s government-affiliated Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM), and Indonesia’s halal certification authority—the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI, from 2015 to 2023), now known as BPJPH, under the Ministry of Religious Affairs. This means MPJA’s standards are fully compliant with those set by JAKIM and BPJPH, making them internationally recognized halal certification benchmarks.

At the same time, the MPJA halal certification mark is valid and accepted in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand.
