Sidq Finance is an independent certification body for Islamic-finance products and consumer goods. Every certificate we issue is a cryptographically-signed artefact on a public ledger, auditable by regulators, verifiable by counterparties, impossible to silently alter.
Every certificate we issue follows the same transparent path. Applicants know what to expect; regulators can reconstruct the history of any decision from public data alone.
A company submits scope, structure, financing model and supply-chain evidence through the applicant portal.
Two council scholars review documentation, conduct site visits where relevant and produce a non-public findings report.
Three of five council members co-sign the issuance transaction. No single scholar can issue a certificate alone.
The certificate is minted as an NFT on Mintlayer, valid for twelve months. The tx hash is the canonical record.
A certificate's life does not end at issuance. Renewals create a verifiable chain; revocations are published with the scholar's reasoning. Both are recorded on-chain, at the same address as the original.
Ninety days before expiry the applicant is invited to renew. The council re-audits only the
deltas scope changes, financial restructurings, supplier shifts. A fresh certificate is
minted with a predecessor field pointing
to the outgoing one, forming a continuous chain of custody.
If material breaches are identified between renewals, any two council members may propose a revocation. Four signatures from the five-member board execute it. The NFT is burned and replaced with a permanent revocation notice that carries the reasoning, the dissenting opinions (if any) and the evidence index.
Enter a certificate identifier or the Mintlayer transaction hash. The result is pulled from the public ledger. Nothing we show here lives solely on our servers.
All active, expired, renewed and revoked certificates are queryable here. The system reads the canonical state from Mintlayer; our database is a cache.
Paste an ID or transaction hash on the left. We'll resolve it against the registry and show the certificate's current state and full on-chain history.
Below is a rendered view of certificate FDQ-2026-000412. The same record is available as machine-readable JSON and as an NFT on Mintlayer.
Product-level certification covering sourcing, processing, supply chain and financing structure for the listed SKUs manufactured at DIP Facility 2.
Reviewed under Sidq Finance Methodology v4.1 (AAOIFI-aligned, food-products annex). Supersedes v3.8 applicable to the predecessor certificate.
The same trust surface, optimised for a phone. Regulators and retailers run audits from the field; consumers in the aisle check a product before it enters their basket.
Undisclosed change in receivables financing structure outside of certified scope.
Members are appointed for non-renewable five-year terms by an external nominating committee. Conflicts of interest and financial disclosures are published annually.
Our screening and purification standards are versioned documents. Every certificate names the standard version it was reviewed under so historical decisions remain legible.
Applicants or affected third parties may contest a decision. The appellate panel is drawn by lot from members who did not participate in the original ruling.
