The above official emphasized: "The mandatory Halal regulation in Law No. 33 of 2014 of Indonesia is an important point in bringing about a change in the situation and conditions for implementing Halal product assurance in the country.

Accordingly, Halal products have changed in meaning, not only related to religion but also expanded to add value to products that have an impact on the economy .

Starting from October 2024, all products imported, circulated and traded in Indonesia will need to be certified as Halal.

Over the past 4 years, as of early 2024, more than 3.4 million products in Indonesia have been certified Halal.
