Indonesia's code of ethics for Islamic accounting needs to be formulated in line with the development of sharia accounting practices that are widespread in the world of Islamic banking and Indonesia's dynamic sharia economy with high complexity. Indonesia's Islamic sharia accounting code of ethics needs to adopt a code of ethics compiled by international experts in the global Islamic accountant organization AAOIFI as a drafting reference. The research uses an interactive qualitative type that advances interview techniques to collect data from scholars. The primary source of research uses the code of ethics issued by AAOIFI and through interviews with Islamic accounting expert from IAI and ulama (scholars) in the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI).
