Halal Candle Wholesale FAQ for Malaysian Buyers

Yes. Pu Aura scented candles are certified under standard MS 2200-1:2008, Certificate ID VNH-JAKIM.72, issued by Vietnam National Halal (VNH) — a certification body officially recognised by JAKIM Malaysia. The certificate is valid from 28 July 2026 to 27 July 2027. A scanned copy is published as a PDF for your compliance team to verify directly.

The certificate document specifies "Pu Aura Scented Candles". La Chi Company Limited, the certified manufacturer, has confirmed the certified wax formulation and manufacturing process is shared across all lines — including the unburned hanging wax sachets (D2) and mini wax tablets (D3), alongside the sculptural candles (D1) and curated gift sets (D4). We are happy to share the full certificate PDF for your internal review before you commit to an order.

No. Certificate VNH-JAKIM.72 is valid for circulation in Malaysia under the JAKIM reciprocal recognition scheme. It is explicitly not valid for circulation in Indonesia or GCC / Middle East countries, which require separate in-country halal certification. If your distribution plans extend beyond Malaysia, Singapore, or Vietnam, please contact our export desk before committing to those markets.

We print bilingual English/Bahasa Melayu labels prepared to the marking requirements of Malaysia's Trade Descriptions (Marking of Pre-Packaged Goods) Order 2023, including your company name and address as importer. Final label compliance for goods sold in Malaysia rests with the Malaysian importer of record; we supply print-ready artwork for your approval before production.

Pu Aura candles are paired with a 100% lead-free braided natural cotton wick. The wax has a melting point of 62–65°C, formulated to resist sweating and deformation in tropical transit when shipped under our packing and stowage protocol.

We quote pricing on a FOB Ho Chi Minh City (Cat Lai Port) basis. Standard B2B terms are 50% deposit upon PO confirmation and artwork/mould approval, with the remaining 50% balance payable before release of the original Bill of Lading (a copy is shared in advance purely to support your customs paperwork preparation — cargo release itself requires the original B/L or an authorized telex release, which protects both buyer and seller).
