About Japan Halal Guide

For each restaurant we check public sources — the venue's own site and socials, certifying bodies like the Japan Islamic Trust, maps, and recent reviews — and record what we found and when. Every listing carries a status on this scale:

We would rather under-claim than mislead. If we can't corroborate a certificate, we don't call a place "Certified" — it drops to a lower tier with a note to confirm directly. Halal status is personal and consequential, so we treat this guide as a starting point, never the final word. Always confirm current certification, ingredients, and alcohol handling with the restaurant before you rely on it.

Some links to book a table, order delivery, or visit a venue are affiliate links — if you use them we may earn a small commission, at no cost to you. It never changes a listing's halal status or where it ranks. Full detail on our affiliate disclosure page.

Japan Halal Guide is a project by Golden Corpus, a small independent studio based in Tokyo. Spotted something wrong, or run a halal spot you'd like listed? Email hello@japanhalalguide.jp — corrections from the community are how this stays accurate.
