<![CDATA[This study aims to identify and analyze the comparison of Standard Clauses regulations in Indonesian and New Zealand consumer protection laws. This research is normative legal research, in which this research obtains data from primary legal materials, including legal principles and legal norms contained in laws and regulations within the consumer protection sector in Indonesia and New Zealand, supported by secondary legal materials in the form of books, journals, articles, papers, previous research related to research problems. The results of this study indicate that there are notable differences between the regulations for the use of Standard Clauses in Indonesian and New Zealand consumer protection laws. These differences are observed in several aspects, such as the terminology used, the determination process for prohibited Standard Clauses, the legal implication of the use of Standard Clauses, and the legal accountability for business actors who include Standard Clauses prohibited by the law. Indonesia uses the term "Standard Clauses", while New Zealand uses the term "Unfair Contract Terms”. In Indonesia, it is illegal for business actors to include Standard Clauses that fulfill the provisions mentioned in Article 18, Paragraph (1), and Paragraph (2) of the UUPK. If such clauses are included, they are declared null and void by law. On the other hand, in New Zealand, if a business includes an Unfair Contract Term in a consumer contract, the court can cancel it upon request by the Commerce Commission or the affected consumer.]]>
