The research approach used is the Shari'i Theological Approach with a normative juridical approach. The results of the study indicate that halal certification with a self- declaration scheme in the perspective of Islamic law is said to be valid, because the concept of self-declaration in Indonesia does not necessarily mean that business actors can declare that their products are halal, but there are still mechanisms that regulate the self-declaration such as products that are not risky or use materials that have been confirmed halal and PPH assistance is carried out. In addition, the presence of self-declaration has fulfilled the three basic principles of muamalah fiqh, namely the Principle of Tawhid, the Principle of Mubah, the Principle of Maslahah. The implication of this research is to help ensure that products claimed to be halal by micro and small businesses (MSEs) through the self-declaration scheme actually meet halal standards recognized by Islamic law, so that consumers can have greater confidence in the products in circulation, besides that this research is also expected to be the basis for improving regulations related to halal certification of self-declaration schemes, including improving supervision and monitoring mechanisms to prevent unauthorized self-declaration practices.
