The method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach, as well as a literature review of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The results show that although the domestic secondhand clothing trade is legal according to the Indonesian Standard Classification of Industrial Fields (KBLI), there are no clear quality and hygiene standards.
