About KMF The Korea Muslim Federation (KMF) is South Korea's primary national Muslim organisation and operates the country's longest-established halal certification programme. KMF provides halal certification for Korean food manufacturers, cosmetics producers, and food-service operators targeting Muslim consumer markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and within Korea's own Muslim community. South Korea has developed substantial halal food and K-beauty export ambitions, with Korean food products — processed foods, sauces, confectionery, snacks, and instant noodles — growing rapidly in popularity across Muslim-majority markets. KMF's halal certification is recognised by JAKIM (Malaysia) and MUIS (Singapore), providing Korean exporters with access to Southeast Asian halal markets. KMF operates as Korea's foundational halal certifier, predating newer organisations like HAI Korea, and remains a respected credential among South Korean food manufacturers pursuing halal market entry. KMF also serves the Muslim community and supports halal tourism infrastructure development in Korea.
