Halal Studies and Society (HaSS) is a journal of multidisciplinary and communication media as well as a means of ongoing discussion on relevant issues based on Halal specifications. In a global context, the halal issue is no longer limited to Muslims or certain religions. But, it has become a trend related to lifestyle in general. A halal lifestyle includes the consumption of products and services that comply with the principles of Islamic law (shariah). Therefore, Halal Products are not only limited to food and drinks. But it also covers various sectors including education, tourism, cosmetics, medicine, finance, fashion, arts, slaughter and culture. Halal Studies and Society is a premier scholarly publication dedicated to advancing the understanding and exploration of halal related topics, practices, and industry. By making this journal Freely accessible, the aim is to reach a global audience and contribute to the global discourse on halal issues. This journal provides a platform for researchers from different countries to connect, share insights, and disseminate their findings. In addition, this journal aims to encourage the growth and development of the global halal ecosystem, a collaboration between researchers from various backgrounds, and a rich exchange of ideas. The journal covers issues such as including Halal Food and Products, Halal medicine, halal tourism, halal lifestyle, halal education, halal management, and the Halal industry. Articles discussing halal theory and current issues regarding applied halal are also welcome. Halal Studies and Society Research is published in January, May, and September each year, with ten articles per year.

Abstract

The enforcement of the mandatory halal certification policy by the Government became effective from October17, 2019. However, proper implementation requires thorough evaluation to understand how business actorsrespond to and use services previously provided by Halal Certification Institution. Therefore, this study aims toexamine the effectiveness of the institution in delivering advisory services, level of competence, and the extentto which the associated costs motivate business to pursue certification in accordance with the quality of servicesprovided. The three aspects provide valuable advice for the next designated authority to emulate the performanceexperience. The survey method was used, and the samples comprised 91 individuals from large, medium, andsmall business across 11 provincial cities in Indonesia. The field survey data were analyzed using descriptivestatistics with justification. The results showed that 81.4% of business expressed satisfaction with the performanceof the halal certification body, 80.3% recognized the institution commitment to service quality, and 59.4% supportedthe certification requirements.

Abstract

The acceleration of halal certification is a strategic policy issue in the global Islamic economy during the rise of cross-border demand for halal products. Only 28.8% of food and beverage enterprises in Indonesia had obtained halal certification as of February 11, 2025, despite the country’s strategic position in the global market. Therefore, this study aims to examine the role of Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRA) in facilitating halal certification with a particular focus on food and beverage products through regulatory harmonization. MRA documents and international halal regulatory frameworks are analysed using an empirical qualitative method, supported by semi-structured interviews with halal certification stakeholders. The results suggest that MRA is expected to streamline procedures, avoid duplication, and improve efficiency, particularly in cross-border certification. However, the effectiveness is constrained by differences in Sharia interpretation, uneven testing infrastructure, and coordination challenges. MRA can support more efficient halal certification when reinforced by institutional capacity building and digitalized certification systems.
