“The CEROL certification system will accelerate the process of halal certification for products and improve the agency`s documentation system,” LPPOM Director Lukmanul Hakim stated here on Thursday.
Lukmanul explained that a company must go through several stages in order to obtain halal certification for a product. First, the company must register its product with LPPOM, provide complete data regarding the product and pay for the halal certification process. Following this, an officer from LPPOM will crosscheck the data given to the agency with the real condition of the product. (source)
