This study aims to analyze the challenges faced by MSMEs in implementing SAK EMKM and formulate strategies to encourage compliance with these standards. This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques using SAK EMKM interviews. The results of the study indicate that the main challenges in implementing SAK EMKM include: (1) low understanding and awareness of MSME actors about SAK EMKM; (2) limited human resources who have competence in accounting; (3) no separation between business and personal transactions; (4) less supportive cost-benefit perceptions; and (5) lack of socialization and mentoring. The strategies formulated include: (1) strengthening tiered education and socialization programs; (2) establishing a sustainable mentoring system; (3) developing technology-based accounting applications that comply with SAK EMKM; (4) strengthening the role of financial institutions in encouraging compliance; and (5) collaboration between academics, practitioners, regulators, MSME actors, and financial institutions.
