        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Halal Product Assurance Agency (BPJPH) has\nconfirmed that halal certificates for micro and small business operators\napplying through the self-declare scheme can be issued within a maximum\nof 1x24 hours, once all required documents are declared complete. BPJPH\nHead Ahmad Haikal Hasan, familiarly known as Babe Haikal, stated that\nthis service acceleration is now possible through the use of\ndigitalisation and artificial intelligence in the halal certification\nprocess. \u201cSo I am confident enough to commit that a halal certificate\nwill be issued within 1x24 hours when all documents are complete for the\nself-declare scheme,\u201d he said during an SME Talkshow at the Smesco\nBuilding in Jakarta on Wednesday. According to him, digital\ntransformation is one of the main factors driving improvements in halal\ncertification services while also expanding the reach of business\noperators who can access the service. Beyond highlighting the service\nacceleration, Babe Haikal also emphasised that halal certification is\nincreasingly necessary, as halal is no longer viewed solely as a\nrequirement for Muslims but has become part of a global trend related to\nhealth, sustainability, and the economy. \u201cStop saying halal is only for\nMuslims. The world is full of halal and no longer looks at religion.\nHalal is a need for everyone,\u201d he added. He cited growing interest in\nhalal products in several non-Muslim countries such as China, South\nKorea, the United States, and the United Kingdom. According to him,\nthese countries view halal from different angles, ranging from a symbol\nof health and an eco-friendly lifestyle to an engine of economic growth.\nFurthermore, he noted that based on a DinarStandard report, the global\nhalal industry transaction value reaches approximately Rp21,000\ntrillion, with around Rp6,900 trillion of that occurring in Indonesia.\nHe stated that in 2025, the contribution of the sharia economy and halal\nindustry to the national economy is also significant, accounting for\naround 27 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP). He said BPJPH\ncontinues to push for the strengthening of the national halal ecosystem,\nincluding through the acceleration of certification services for micro\nand small business operators so they can more easily enter the national\nand global halal industry supply chain.<\/p>",
