The Indonesian economic sector is dominated by micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM), causing the goods and services in circulation to be dominated by these business products. Majority costumers in Indonesian who are Muslim, so it is important to guarantee halal certification for a product so as bring comfort, safety, and assurance for people who consume or use the product. In addition, through Government Regulation Number 39 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Halal Product Guarantee Sector, it is stated that the halal certification obligation for UMKM is mandatory should apply for halal certification of their products. Therefore, it is vital to conduct studies connected to the subject of monitoring halal product assurances in Indonesia. This study employs normative legal research methodologies, including a review of statutory regulations (vertical) and the angle of harmony between statutory regulations (horizontal), as well as a normative juridical approach by reviewing all laws and regulations relating to existing legal issues and using library study techniques for collecting legal materials. The main regulations for halal product guarantees in Indonesia are regulated through Law Number 33 of 2014 concerning halal product guarantees as amended in government regulations in lieu of Law Number 2 of 2022 jo. Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning job creation. According to the study findings that many regulations governing halal product guarantees in Indonesia have led to dualism in halal certification institutions, namely between the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) and the Halal Product Fatwa Committee regarding the authority to issue halal certification to products produced by business actors.
