Jakarta, 6 August 2025 – ET Consultant, a leading Indonesian business advisory and compliance consultancy, has taken a significant step towards expanding its halal certification services through a strategic engagement with Lembaga Pemeriksa Halal Kajian Halalan Thayyiban of Muhammadiyah (LPH KHT PP Muhammadiyah).
The meeting, held in Jakarta, was attended by Ms. Deasy Widiantie, Director of ET Consultant, and Mr. Rafik Djunaedi, Director of Administration, Finance, Digitalization, and Marketing at LPH KHT PP Muhammadiyah, who also serves as a Certified Halal Auditor.
Addressing the Growing Demand for Halal Certification in Indonesia
Both parties recognised the halal market as a critical growth sector in Indonesia, the world’s largest Muslim-majority country. The discussion was driven by the mandatory halal certification requirements introduced by the Indonesian Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) in October 2024, which apply to a wide range of food, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods.
The enforcement of BPJPH Halal Regulations has created an urgent need for businesses—both domestic and foreign—to secure timely and compliant halal certification to ensure uninterrupted market access and maintain consumer trust.
Combining Regulatory Expertise with Halal Auditing Authority
The envisioned collaboration aims to combine ET Consultant’s extensive expertise in regulatory compliance, market entry advisory, and licensing services with LPH KHT PP Muhammadiyah’s recognised authority in halal auditing and certification. This strategic alignment will allow businesses to benefit from:
- End-to-end halal certification assistance in accordance with BPJPH standards.
- Direct engagement with certified halal auditors for pre-assessment and compliance review.
- Comprehensive advisory services covering legal requirements, documentation, and regulatory liaison.
- Efficient market entry strategies for halal-certified products in Indonesia and export markets.

Strengthening Indonesia’s Position in the Global Halal Economy
Through this partnership, both institutions aim to facilitate the halal certification process, reduce compliance risks for businesses, and help Indonesia solidify its position as a global leader in halal products and services. The collaboration is also expected to support the growth of halal-certified SMEs, attract foreign investment into Indonesia’s halal industry, and promote sustainable development in line with national halal assurance policies.
“Halal compliance is no longer optional—it is a market imperative. By working with LPH KHT PP Muhammadiyah, we can ensure that our clients meet BPJPH halal requirements efficiently, while also positioning themselves competitively in the rapidly expanding global halal market,” said Ms. Deasy Widiantie, Director of ET Consultant.
Businesses seeking halal certification in Indonesia, BPJPH registration support, or halal market entry advisory are encouraged to contact ET Consultant for tailored solutions. Our team of regulatory consultants and certified halal auditors will guide you through every stage of the process, ensuring full compliance with Indonesian halal laws and international market standards.
