How long does Indonesia's Halal Certification process take time?
The time it takes to get Halal certification can vary widely. Factors like how complex your business is, how prepared your paperwork is, and which certification body you choose all play a role. Simple businesses with everything ready can get certified faster, while bigger companies with more complex processes might take longer.
Generally, you can expect the process to include an application review (a few weeks), an on-site audit (a few days to weeks), and then the final decision and certification (a few more weeks).
