Is It Halal? — Free Ingredient Check Card for Muslim Travellers

Read any label in seconds. One printable page with the two‑second label rule, the watch‑list ingredients in plain words (E471, E472, gelatin, rennet, whey, E920 L‑cysteine, flavourings), what to leave on the shelf (pork, E120 carmine, E904 shellac, E542 bone phosphate, alcohol), five questions to ask at a restaurant, and three confidence levels so you know when to eat, when to ask, and when to walk away.

Free — print it, or keep it in your phone for the supermarket aisle. And when you want the full system, the complete halal food guide walks the four‑tier check — state‑backed certification, recognised private certifiers, Muslim‑owned kitchens, and the doubtful tier — with the full E‑number list and cross‑contamination guidance.

Disclaimer: This free card is a study aid and not a fatwa. Where scholars differ — carmine, trace alcohol, animal rennet — that has been said plainly. Certification marks differ from country to country, so always check a mark against the body that issued it, and for anything difficult or doubtful, ask a qualified person or contact a recognised certifier. Provided free for personal use; not for resale, redistribution or use as paid teaching material.
