certification in implementing halal certification has the task of establishing rules/regulations, receiving
and verifying product submissions to be certified halal from business actors (product owners), and issuing
halal certificates along with halal labels. Meanwhile, in implementing halal standardization, it still
refers to SJH LPPOM MUI. Meanwhile, the cost of halal certification will be charged to the state for
the MSE category. In addition, there are two payment account posts, namely at BPJPH and LPH
(LPPOM). Viewed from a political economy approach, the presence of BPJPH brings ideological,
power, and economic interests. Business actors consider BPJPH halal certification to be two-way, both
the administrative process and the certification fee. In the perspective of maqasid al-syariah, halal
certification by BPJPH brings benefits, namely maintaining essential needs for human life. These
important needs are commonly called al-maqhasid al-khamsah, among others, maintaining religion,
soul, mind, lineage and property.
