What to check before you order
- Yoshinoya in Japan and most other markets is not halal — the certification is Singapore-specific.
- Check that the outlet displays a current MUIS halal certificate — certification is per-premises, not automatic for new outlets.
- Pop-ups, kiosks and event booths may not be covered by the main certificate; when in doubt, ask to see it.
- Certificates expire and are renewed periodically — the MUIS HalalSG register always shows the live status.

Frequently asked questions
Is Yoshinoya MUIS halal-certified in Singapore?
Yes — Yoshinoya Singapore has been MUIS halal-certified since December 2024, covering its outlets islandwide. As certification is per-premises and renewable, confirm the specific outlet's current certificate on the MUIS HalalSG register before dining.
Does every Yoshinoya outlet in Singapore hold the certificate?
MUIS certification is issued per premises. Yoshinoya's Singapore outlets are covered under its certification, but a brand-new outlet is only covered once its own certificate is issued — confirm the specific outlet on the MUIS HalalSG register if it just opened.
Can a halal certificate lapse?
Yes. Certificates are time-limited and renewed periodically, and MUIS can suspend a certificate if conditions are breached. The MUIS HalalSG register always reflects the current status, which is why every answer here links to it.
How can I check if Yoshinoya is halal?
Search for Yoshinoya on the official MUIS HalalSG register at halal.muis.gov.sg, or look for a valid MUIS halal certificate displayed at the outlet. A “no pork, no lard” sign is self-declared and is not the same as MUIS halal certification.

What 'MUIS halal-certified' means
MUIS halal certification means the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore has audited the premises, ingredients and supply chain, and issued a halal certificate for the outlet or plant. Certified outlets display the certificate and appear on the official MUIS HalalSG register.
Certification is per-premises and time-limited: it must be renewed, and a new outlet is only covered once its own certificate is issued. That is why we always link you to the register — the certificate on the wall and the HalalSG listing are the ground truth on the day you visit.
