<![CDATA[The objective of this research is to identify the various forms of notary liability for deeds that indicate legal smuggling due to their contradiction with the prevailing laws and regulations in Indonesia. The research method used is a normative juridical method with statutory, case, and analytical approaches.

This principle is enshrined in Article 9 paragraph (1) of the UUPA, which states that only Indonesian citizens may have a full legal relationship with land, water, and space, within the boundaries specified by law.
