About PHA The Pakistan Halal Authority (PHA) is Pakistan's national government body responsible for halal certification, standardisation, and accreditation, established under the Pakistan Halal Authority Act 2016 and operating under the Ministry of Science and Technology. PHA was created to provide a unified, government-backed halal certification framework for Pakistan's substantial food, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods manufacturing sectors. Pakistan is the world's second-largest Muslim-majority country by population and a major producer of halal food products. PHA accredits halal inspection bodies and certification organisations operating within Pakistan, and its certificates are recognised by JAKIM (Malaysia) through Punjab PHDA bilateral agreements, as well as by OIC/SMIIC member states and IHAF. PHA also participates in the Pakistan National Accreditation Council (PNAC) framework. For exporters manufacturing in Pakistan, PHA-backed certification provides a government-endorsed credential for accessing Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern, and GCC markets.
