Abstract

Abstract. Notaries are authorized to create authentic deeds under the Notary Law, including credit agreements secured by certificates to provide legal certainty for creditors and debtors. However, in practice, disputes often arise when one party reneges on their signature, as in Pati District Court Decision Number 10/Pdt.G/2023/PN.Pti. This situation emphasizes the need for legal protection for notaries who have carried out their duties in accordance with the provisions, so that they are not burdened with responsibility for the actions of parties who do not act in good faith. This study analyzes the protection of the notary's position and also analyzes the judge's considerations in the decision. This study uses a normative juridical approach, employing a statute approach and a case approach. This type of research is normative. The data sources and types are secondary data obtained through literature review. The analysis is prescriptive. The results show that in the legal protection of professional positions, a notary can undertake two legal protection measures: preventive measures to prevent disputes from arising, and repressive measures through the courts. In the judge's considerations in case number:10/Pdt.G/2023/Pn.Pti, emphasized that legal reasoning must be based on facts, evidence, and applicable legal regulations. This dispute stems from the plaintiff's claim that he never signed a power of attorney or credit guarantee deed. However, it was legally proven that there was a Special Power of Attorney dated February 28, 2013, signed by the plaintiff. Because the plaintiff could not prove any forgery of the signature, the lawsuit was rejected in its entirety by the panel of judges. This decision emphasizes the importance of the principle of legal certainty. As long as there is no criminal decision related to forgery, the deed and power of attorney remain valid. Keywords: Credit; Guarantee; Notary; Notarial Deed; Protection.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze: 1) PThe implementation of the Apostille process in Indonesia and the perspective of international law. 2) The implementation of the Apostille system affects the role and responsibilities of notaries in Indonesia. This type of research is normative legal research. The type of data in this study is secondary data. The data collection method uses observation, interviews, and library techniques (document study). The analysis in this study is qualitative. The results of the study concluded: 1) The implementation of Apostille replaces layered legalization with an efficient and internationally recognized public document validation mechanism. The 1961 Hague Convention simplifies document proof through a single official certificate, while in Indonesia the legal basis is stated in Presidential Regulation No. 2 of 2021, Permenkumham No. 6 of 2022, and Decree of the Minister of Law and Human Rights No. M.HH-01.AH.03.01 of 2022, with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights as the Competent Authority through the apostille.ahu.go.id portal, creating efficiency, transparency, and legal certainty. 2) The implementation of the Apostille expands the role of notaries from merely national deed-making officials to legal actors in the international civil evidence system. Notaries are now responsible for ensuring that each deed meets the formal requirements of Article 38 of the UUJN, the validity of the signature and official stamp, and the conformity of the data with the specimen signature in the Ministry of Law and Human Rights database so that the document can be affixed with an Apostille Certificate. In addition to formal responsibilities, administrative aspects require precision in document verification and electronic legalization procedures (Cyber Notary), while ethical responsibilities require integrity, intellectual honesty, and caution to avoid harm to others. In the digital era, notary responsibilities also include cybersecurity and personal data protection in accordance with Law No. 27 of 2022, so that electronic deeds remain valid, authentic, and trusted internationally. Thus, the Apostille system strengthens the strategic position of notaries as guardians of the credibility of Indonesian law, demanding professionalism, accountability, and mastery of digital legal technology.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze: 1) The validity of e-signature in authentic deeds according to the prevailing laws and regulations in Indonesia. 2) Challenges and solutions in the application of e-signature in authentic deeds by notaries. This type of research is included in the scope of normative legal research. The approach method in this research is legislation (statue approach). The type of data in this research is secondary data sourced from primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials. The data collection method uses library techniques (study document). The analysis in this research is qualitative analysis. The results of the research concluded: 1) The validity of e-signature in authentic deeds according to the prevailing laws and regulations in Indonesia is still at the conceptual stage and does not yet fully have strong normative legitimacy. In positive law, Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to the ITE Law has provided a basis for recognizing electronic signatures as valid evidence, as regulated in Article 11 paragraph (1) and Article 5 paragraph (1). However, this recognition has not been harmoniously accommodated in Law Number 2 of 2014 concerning the Position of Notary, which still requires physical presence and manual signature as stated in Article 16 paragraph (1) letter m. The lack of synchronization between the two laws creates legal uncertainty regarding the authenticity of deeds made electronically. 2) The implementation of e-signatures in authentic deeds by notaries still faces various challenges that are normative, technical, and sociological. The disharmony between the ITE Law, PP No. 71 of 2019, and the Notary Position Law is the main obstacle that causes the lack of legal certainty regarding the validity of electronic deeds. On the other hand, limited digital infrastructure and low technological literacy among notaries and the public also slow down the process of notarial digitalization. Nevertheless, solution efforts in the form of regulatory harmonization, strengthening cybersecurity systems through Electronic Certification Providers (PSrE), and increasing notary digital competence are strategic steps that must be implemented immediately to ensure that electronic deeds have the same legal force as conventional authentic deeds. Thus, the success of the digital transformation of notaries can only be achieved if law, technology, and the ethics of the notary profession work in harmony to ensure legal certainty, justice, and legal protection for the parties.
