The Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency (Indonesian: Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Produk Halal) is an Indonesian government cabinet-level agency in charge of organizing the halal certification. The agency is led by a head, Haikal Hassan, since 22 October 2024 (2024-10-22).[1]

Along with the Hajj Organizing Agency, this agency results from a spin-off of the Ministry of Religious Affairs.[2] Previously, halal organizing affairs were the responsibility of the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Body. The agency later separated and made into an independent agency.[2]
