This research paper explores the ongoing challenges within the field of halal logistics, with particular attention to regulatory compliance, operational processes, infrastructure limitations, and the high costs of implementation. As Malaysia continues to position itself as a global halal hub, halal logistics plays an increasingly critical role in supporting both domestic and international supply chains, while simultaneously safeguarding consumer trust in the integrity of halal products. Despite its importance, the sector is hindered by fragmented regulations, lack of standardized practices, inadequate infrastructure, and significant financial burdens associated with certification and dedicated facilities. The purpose of this study is to identify and critically analyze the key challenges faced by stakeholders in halal logistics, including manufacturers, service providers, and policymakers, with the broader aim of facilitating the delivery of high-quality logistics services that fully comply with Islamic principles. Employing a qualitative methodology, the research systematically reviews scholarly articles, books, and conference proceedings to capture existing knowledge and perspectives on the subject. The findings not only highlight pressing issues but also emphasize the need for collaborative efforts, innovation, and stronger policy frameworks to enhance halal logistics practices. Ultimately, the study contributes to advancing knowledge and strengthening Malaysia’s competitiveness in the global halal economy.
