<![CDATA[Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and the tourism industry have an inseparable link because the availability of halal products or halal services is fundamental in building the halal tourism sector. Therefore, to support the development of the halal tourism sector, optimizing halal products, including MSME products, is one of the keys. This study aims to describe optimizing the role of MSMEs in supporting halal tourism in Aceh. The method used in this research is descriptive analysis with a qualitative approach. The data source used is primary data in the form of interviews with several related agencies, namely LPPOM MPU Aceh, Culture and Tourism Service, Aceh Cooperative and SME Service and MSME actors.
