Abstract

The current implementation of digital halal certification regulations in Indonesia applies not only to large businesses but also to Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs), resulting in the Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) developing web-based certification services. One of the keys to supporting the current economic recovery and achieving better economic growth is strengthening the MSE sector. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the implementation of halal certification requirements, particularly for MSEs. This is intended to provide legal certainty to MSE actors and formulate appropriate halal certification obligations for MSEs, which are vital engines in the Indonesian national economy. The research results indicate that there are still many challenges facing MSE actors regarding halal certification requirements. MSE actors face challenges due to their minimal and uncertain income, making it difficult for them to obtain halal certification. Additionally, their manual administrative practices and lack of understanding of information technology hinder the online halal certification process. Third, in terms of facilities and documents, MSE actors still have limitations in facilities, equipment, and resources needed to meet halal production requirements. They also lack the necessary legal documents. Fourth, in terms of mindset, many MSE operators believe that halal certification requirements only apply to businesses with significant income, and therefore, they do not perceive it as an urgent necessity. This study offers a novel contribution by analyzing the mandatory halal certification for MSEs from a socio-legal perspective. It highlights digitalization challenges and proposes an inclusive regulatory framework to enhance accessibility and compliance. The proposed solutions include improving digital literacy, simplifying administration, and strengthening collaboration among stakeholders.
