Event Reports

EuroCham attended the Halal Certification Service Synergy Forum organized by the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency (BPJPH) from 20–22 May 2026. The forum was held as part of BPJPH’s efforts to accelerate halal certification in 2026 and brought together key stakeholders involved in the implementation of Indonesia’s halal product assurance system.

Conducted in a hybrid format, the forum gathered representatives from regional halal product assurance offices, provincial MUI fatwa commissions, Halal Inspection Bodies (LPH), and business associations from across Indonesia. The event provided a platform for stakeholders to strengthen coordination, exchange views, and support the effective implementation of halal certification services nationwide.

On May 21, EuroCham Indonesia had the pleasure to meet our esteemed Gold Member, Sampoerna, at their office in the Pacific Place building at SCBD to discuss the new regulations related to the sales of Smoke Free Products (SFP) in Indonesia. The meeting provided EuroCham interesting insights about the tobacco industry, its development, their innovation on SFPs, their contribution to the national economy, and their commitment to employ thousands of people.

EuroCham Indonesia extends our appreciation for our engaging meeting and will look forward to advocating on their behalf.
