Consumer acceptance of food safety has an important role in the success of hygiene sanitation standards with certification of veterinary control number (Nomor Kontrol Veteriner, hereinafter NKV) implementation for livestock-based food products. This study was conducted by applying the extended theory of planned behavior (TPB) to analyze the influence of attitudes toward NKV-certified food products, subjective norms (SN), perceived behavioral control (PBC), intention to buy, buying decision of NKV-certified food products, and knowledge. This study was conducted using a survey design, and data were collected from June to August 2023. Respondents were determined by a purposive sampling method. Data were collected using an online questionnaire and were analyzed with structural equation modeling-partial least squares software. The results showed that attitude toward NKV-certified food products, SN, and PBC influenced the intention to buy NKV-certified food products with β values of 0.377, 0.223, and 0.235, respectively. Then, PBC and intention to buy affected NKV-certified food product purchasing behavior with β = 0.304 and 0.340. Furthermore, knowledge affected attitude with β = 0.828 and purchasing behavior of NKV-certified food products β = 0.315 but did not significantly influence the intention to buy. This research implied that the intervention knowledge variable in TPB is valuable in predicting NKV-certified food product purchasing behavior. Continuous consumer education needs to be carried out by the government and other stakeholders in the food industry, in line with the NKV certification policy.
