One of the focus of the study is to employ in the Halal Treatments starting from the analysis of the available herbal treatments and certification of this treatment, it’s marketing issue and prospects of this market in the Indonesia region. There is a rising need for Halal certified products globally especially herbal products as a result of ethical and natural products due to the increase in health concerns. Indonesia embracing agriculture in compliance with halal certification would indeed be an enticing business opportunity as farmers would sell the ingredients and also promote rural development. It really affects the farming community structure as they would be able to practice halal compliant practices that provide a false promise of rural development. The same benefits also go the pharmaceutical sector as the farmers have the raw materials they need expanding their target market both locally and internationally. The documentation protocol is lengthy and complicated which increases the requirement for higher costs as they need high levels of compatibility especially from Islamic standards. These challenges simply demonstrate the need for more assistance in the form of industry coordination and coherence of the policies to meet targets without compromising on quality. In spite of those issues, there is a conspiring trend that bare noticing for many companies, the trend of getting higher levels of consumer trust and access to overseas markets is one that has already been established. This review emphasizes the need for increased study and work of the industry to better the certification process, cut costs, and improve the economic benefits for Indonesia’s Halal-certified herbal medicine industry. It follows that halal certification is likely to enhance the international competitiveness of Indonesia’s herbal products working to position them as quality products on the market for health-conscious consumers worldwide.
