FOOD SECTOR IMPORTS<\/strong><\/p>

INDONESIAN MICRO AND SMALL ENTERPRISES<\/strong><\/p>

The transitional period for food, beverages, and slaughter products and services has also been extended until 17 October 2028<\/strong> for Indonesian micro and small enterprises.<\/p>

VERIFICATION OF FOREIGN HALAL PRODUCTS<\/strong><\/p>

EXISTING OBLIGATIONS<\/strong><\/p>

The requirements already applicable to Indonesian medium-sized and large enterprises operating in the food sector remain unchanged.<\/p>

The revised deadlines give businesses and exporters more time to prepare for Indonesian Halal requirements<\/strong>, assess materials and ingredients, gather the necessary documentation, and organise activities throughout the supply chain.<\/p>

The transitional period has been extended, but it remains essential to plan the activities required for Halal certification well in advance.<\/strong><\/p>
