No. Halal certification is unique. Kosher is not Halal. Halal is not Kosher.

The use of alcohol in flavors or colors is not a kosher issue, but it is an issue for halal. In addition, kosher slaughter does not meet the Islamic religious requirement of blessing each animal at the moment of slaughter. And kosher certification of many vegetarian-type items do not meet halal standards. For example, cheese, marshmallows, candies, baked goods and yogurt may have enzyme or gelatin ingredients from animals which are not halal. Similarly, meat and dairy ingredients can be mixed for halal but not for kosher. The complexities of processed foods, the international sourcing of ingredients and the religious requirements of dhabiha halal slaughter make halal certification unique.
