Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Produk Halal

BPJPH (Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Produk Halal), the Halal Product Assurance Organising Agency, is Indonesia's government authority responsible for halal certification, operating under the Ministry of Religious Affairs. Established under Law No. 33 of 2014 on Halal Product Assurance, BPJPH took over halal certification responsibility from MUI's LP POM and has been phasing in mandatory halal labelling across all product categories sold in Indonesia. From 2024, halal certification became compulsory for food, beverages, and related products in the world's largest Muslim-majority country by population. BPJPH accredits both domestic and foreign halal inspection bodies (LPH) and works with MUI for fatwa issuance. For any company exporting food, cosmetics, or consumer goods to Indonesia's 270-million-strong market, BPJPH certification is now a legal requirement and a fundamental commercial credential.
