Withdrawal/Cancellation of Certificate
Cancellation of certification will be invoked where, following suspension of certification, the client fails to respond to SICHMA communications within the 14-day grace period or fails to implement corrective action within the appointed time period. Cancellation of certification will require the client to assume the status of non-approval and return all certification documentation to SICHMA. A certificate may be withdrawn, or the scope of certification reduced in the following cases:
• if the audit shows that the non-compliance is of a serious nature.
• if the surveillance or re-audit is delayed at the request of the client.
• if the client fails to settle the due payment of its financial obligation to SICHMA
• if the client fails to take adequate measures in case of suspension.
• if any actions are taken by the client which would bring the SICHMA scheme into disrepute. In the above cases SICHMA has the right to withdraw the certificate by informing the client. The client has the right to appeal any decisions SICHMA has taken. Certificates will be cancelled in the following cases: -
• If the client ceases trading for whatever reason.
• If the client does not wish to continue certification to SICHMA halal certification scheme.
• if the product, process or service is no longer offered
