Quick answer: no, not certified any more
Jack Link's says plainly that its products are no longer halal certified. That includes the beef jerky and biltong. Without a certificate, there is no way to confirm the meat is halal from the pack.
What Does Jack Link's Say About Halal?
Jack Link's says its products are not halal certified any more. Its Australian FAQ, which we read on 2 November 2026, answers “Are Jack Link's products Halal?” in one line:
“Jack Link’s products are no longer Halal certified.”

The answer covers every Jack Link's product and names no exception. It does not say when the certification ended, which body certified it before, or why it stopped.
Is Jack Link's Beef Jerky Halal?
It is not halal certified. Beef jerky is the product most people ask about, and the maker's answer above includes it.
Jack Link's says its beef comes from Australian and New Zealand farmers. Where the cattle are raised does not tell you how they were slaughtered, and Jack Link's does not say. For meat, that is the question a certificate answers, so without one the jerky cannot be confirmed halal.

What If a Jack Link's Pack Has a Halal Logo?
Go by what the maker says today. “No longer” means the certification has ended, and Jack Link's does not say when, so a logo on an older pack or an old photo does not match its current answer.
If you have a pack in hand with a halal mark, the certifier named on it can tell you whether it still covers that product.

How Do Jack Link's Packs Show on HalalHQ?
None show as halal. The maker says its products are not certified, so there is nothing to mark them halal with.
The pork jerky, ham jerky, bacon jerky and pork crackle packs show as not halal. The beef packs show what their own ingredient lists can tell us, which is doubtful or unknown: an ingredient list cannot show how the meat was slaughtered. The brand page lists every Jack Link's product we hold.

The Verdict: Can Muslims Eat Jack Link's?
Not on a halal certificate, because Jack Link's says there is none any more. The pork lines are clearly out. For the beef jerky and biltong, nothing from the maker confirms the meat is halal.
If you want halal jerky, look for a pack that names its halal certifier, and check that certifier still lists it.
