 Along with the globalization of trade that leads to a free market, resulting in more and more variations of products being sold, both in the form of products and services. This, on the other hand, has benefits for consumers, but on the other hand, it has the potential to harm consumers due to the actions of business actors in producing goods and services often not paying attention to consumer rights related to existing legal provisions, in this case the inclusion of labels. Halal for imported products Law Number 8 of 1999 and Government Regulation No. 69 of 1999 as a legal umbrella for consumers in Indonesia, has clearly regulated the obligation of business actors to include a label as proof of halal.
