Abstract
To ensure the quality assurance of consumer products, Indonesia implements Law Number 33 of 2014 concerning Quality Assurance of Products as a legal policy. Previously, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) through LPPOM-MUI voluntarily handled quality certification, but in October 2019, the Quality Assurance Organizing Agency (BPJPM) made it mandatory. Despite BPJPM having national authority, in Aceh, LPPOM MPU Aceh also has the authority to provide quality certification in the region, creating a dualism of rules that can cause confusion for businesses. Therefore, legal certainty clarification is needed regarding the implementation of quality product assurance in Aceh to create a conducive business environment. This research uses an empirical juridical method with a focus on field data to analyze the implementation of quality product assurance in Aceh. The research results show that there is dualism in quality certification institutions in Aceh, namely LPPOM MPU Aceh and BPJPM. LPPOM MPU Aceh refers to specific regulations in Aceh, while BPJPM has national authority. Nevertheless, the issuance of quality certification in Aceh has created a conducive business climate by providing legal certainty, product assurance, and consumer confidence. Entrepreneurs who have obtained quality certificates from authorized institutions can gain significant advantages and opportunities in the market.
