AbstrakPertumbuhan populasi Muslim global dan meningkatnya kesadaran konsumen terhadap nilai-nilai etika, kebersihan, dan keberlanjutan telah mendorong permintaan terhadap produk halal secara signifikan. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji urgensi sertifikasi halal dalam perdagangan internasional, baik dari perspektif ekonomi Islam maupun dinamika global industri halal. Menggunakan metode studi pustaka kualitatif, penelitian ini menganalisis literatur akademik dan regulasi yang relevan guna menelusuri peran strategis sertifikasi halal dalam menjamin kualitas produk, meningkatkan kepercayaan konsumen, serta memperluas akses pasar internasional. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa sertifikasi halal tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai jaminan keagamaan, tetapi juga sebagai instrumen kompetitif dalam perdagangan lintas negara. Meskipun terdapat tantangan berupa ketidakharmonisan standar antarnegara dan keterbatasan pengakuan timbal balik, sertifikasi halal tetap memberikan kontribusi positif terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi, pemberdayaan UMKM, serta edukasi sosial. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan harmonisasi standar halal global, digitalisasi sistem jaminan halal, dan integrasi nilai-nilai maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah sebagai fondasi pengembangan industri halal yang inklusif dan berkelanjutan.

AbstractThe growing global Muslim population and increasing consumer awareness of ethical, hygienic, and sustainable values have significantly boosted demand for halal products. This article aims to examine the importance of halal certification in international trade from both Islamic economic perspectives and global halal industry dynamics. Employing a qualitative library research method, this study analyzes academic literature and relevant regulations to explore the strategic role of halal certification in ensuring product quality, enhancing consumer trust, and expanding international market access. The findings indicate that halal certification functions not only as a religious requirement but also as a competitive instrument in cross-border trade. Despite challenges such as the lack of harmonized standards and limited mutual recognition among certifying bodies, halal certification contributes positively to economic growth, SME empowerment, and social awareness. This study recommends the global harmonization of halal standards, the digitalization of halal assurance systems, and the integration of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah values as the foundation for developing an inclusive and sustainable halal industry.
