What does it mean to be Halal food-certified?
Did you know that “Halal” means permissible in Arabic? Halal-certified food essentially refers to food items that are permissible to be consumed under the Islamic law.
Non-Halal or “haram” food items are strictly prohibited from consumption. This includes:
- The meat of animals that were already dead before they could be slaughtered;
- Pigs;
- Dogs;
- Intoxicating drugs; and
- Alcohol
However, Halal-certified food does not simply mean eliminating pork and lard from the list of food ingredients when preparing dishes. The utensils and cookware used should also be Halal, meaning that it cannot be used to cook or touch pork.
In fact, there is a stringent and defined process for food establishments to obtain Halal certification.
In order for a food delivery service to be Halal-certified, they will need to apply for Halal certification with Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (Muis), the Islamic authority that governs Muslim affairs in Singapore.
Why is Halal certification important in Singapore?
Singapore is a multi-racial society that is made up of various races, namely Chinese, Malays, and Indians. This also means that there are various groups of people with their individual religious beliefs.
Halal certification is needed to inform Muslim customers that the food prepared and sold by a particular food establishment is prepared using Halal methods and safe for their consumption under their religious laws.
Benefits of opting for Halal food delivery
Delicious food that is Muslim-friendly for your relatives or friends
Instead of having to cook meals yourself, while ensuring that they are prepared using Halal methods, opting for Halal food delivery offers you a fuss-free option of having a wide variety of food to choose from!
Whether your friends or relatives are craving chicken rice, nasi lemak, or desserts, you do not have to spend the entire day cooking the individual dishes. Instead, a simple call or text message to a Halal establishment to order your meals will do the trick!
You’ll save a lot of time from having to head down to the eateries physically
Going down to the physical eatery to order your food can be time-consuming. Now imagine if you are there, only to find out that the eatery is not Halal-certified!
With Halal food delivery services, you can be sure that the eatery that you are ordering from has obtained their Halal certification. At the same time, you can enjoy fresh and steaming hot food delivered right to your doorstep without having to step out of your house. Think about the immense amount of time that you would have saved from travelling to and back just to buy lunch or dinner for your family or friends.
Enjoy exclusive online meal promotions and bundled discounts
The best part about ordering Halal food online is that you get to enjoy exclusive online meal promotions and discounts! Certain eateries may offer bundled discounts that you may not be aware of when ordering food from their physical stores.
Ordering Halal food delivery also provides you with the option of using discount coupons or vouchers to offset your total bill, giving you a bang for your buck!

What to look out for when ordering Halal food delivery?
If this is your first time ordering Halal food delivery, here are some considerations to look out for:
Cost of delivery fees
Delivery fees typically vary from eatery to eatery. Some may offer a flat delivery fee regardless of the delivery location. Others may vary the delivery fee depending on where you stay and how far it is from the eatery.
If the delivery fee adds up to a considerable amount, you are probably better off heading down to the store physically to pick up your order, or order from another eatery.
Island-wide delivery versus delivery by destination
When ordering Halal food delivery, another consideration to look out for is whether the eatery delivers island-wide or do they only deliver to certain locations in Singapore.
Some eateries split their delivery fees based on certain regions in Singapore. Locations such as Orchard, Newton and Raffles Place are typically considered as Central regions in Singapore while Jurong and Clementi are considered as the Western part of Singapore. Delivery fees may then differ depending on the region that the food is to be delivered to.
Minimum order for food delivery
Before opting for food delivery, do keep a lookout whether there is a minimum order required before the eatery allows for food delivery. Certain eateries require you to meet a minimum order amount before you can opt to have your food delivered to you.
The reason for the minimum order is to ensure that it is cost efficient for the eatery to engage their delivery riders. Imagine delivering a food order that is $3 when the delivery fee is $5. It is definitely not cost effective for both the eatery and yourself.
Eligibility for free delivery
The good thing about Halal food delivery services is that most eateries typically offer free delivery when your food bill meets a minimum amount. This is definitely helpful when you are throwing a huge party or have a large number of guests over.
Not only does a Halal food delivery service help you to save on time and effort, you get to enjoy it all delivered right to your doorstep without having to fork out additional costs for the delivery fees!
How to place an order
Online ordering methods tend to differ from eatery to eatery. Some eateries may have their own online ordering form, whereby you can order directly from the restaurant while viewing the prices of the individual food items. Other eateries may prefer that you drop them a call or text message to place your food order as they may not have the time or resources to monitor an online ordering form.
You may also opt to order Halal food from specific food delivery platforms, such as GrabFood or foodpanda. Regardless of where or how you order, always ensure that the eatery confirms your order and that you have an email or text confirmation. Otherwise, you may end up waiting for a food order that will never be delivered.
