Indonesia’s Ministry of Religious Affairs (Kementerian Agama/Kemenag) is preparing to engage all levels of its offices, including Kantor Urusan Agama (KUA) branches, in an educational campaign regarding the mandatory halal certification policy. The government will implement the Wajib Halal requirement beginning October 18, 2026. This initiative aims to ensure widespread understanding and compliance with the new regulations across Indonesia. Kemenag intends to utilize the extensive network of KUA offices to reach communities nationwide. The campaign will focus on informing businesses and the public about the process and importance of halal certification. This move underscores the government's commitment to enforcing halal standards for products circulating within Indonesia. The Ministry believes a thorough educational effort is crucial for a smooth transition to the new system.
