As part of ongoing cooperation and dialogue, Indonesia and the European Union signed a Joint Announcement reaffirming their commitment to strengthen collaboration, particularly in halal certification and trade facilitation, during the Indonesian delegation’s High-Level Study Visit on EU Single Market Principles and Indonesian Halal Certification Policy in Brussels on Tuesday (10/2). Through the Joint Announcement, both sides committed to enhancing cooperation across shared interests, improving understanding of the EU Single Market’s implications on Indonesia-EU trade, and continuing dialogue, technical exchanges, and information sharing on halal certification. Further, bilateral talks between Deputy Coordinating Minister for Economic and Investment Cooperation Edi Prio Pambudi and EU Deputy Director-General for Trade Maria Martin-Prat De Abreu focused on aligning halal policies and advancing the IEU-CEPA, reflecting Indonesia’s broader effort to build an open, constructive, and mutually understood economic relationship with the EU. The meeting also addressed progress on the Indonesia-EU CEPA, including the ongoing legal scrubbing process, with Edi Pambudi emphasising Indonesia’s hope for its swift completion to provide certainty for businesses.Source: https://www.ekon.go.id/publikasi/detail/6815/melalui-penandatanganan-joint-announcement-indonesia-dan-uni-eropa-dorong-dialog-kerja-sama-halal-dan-fasilitasi-perdagangan (ICE GIACARTA)
