Abstract

This study aims to analyze the legal force of the certificate of inheritance issued by the Balai Harta Peninggalan (Inheritance Affairs Office) in Makassar City, as well as the responsibilities of the office regarding the issuance of such certificates. The research employs a normative juridical method with legislative, conceptual, and case study approaches. The data used consist of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, which are analyzed qualitatively. The results show that the certificate of inheritance issued by the Inheritance Affairs Office holds legal validity as long as it meets the requirements stipulated in the applicable laws and regulations. However, in practice, the implementation of this authority encounters several challenges, including inconsistencies in data that may affect the legitimacy of the certificate. Furthermore, the Inheritance Affairs Office bears full responsibility for ensuring the accuracy and validity of the information used as the basis for issuing the certificate, including being held accountable in cases of disputes arising from the issued documents. The recommendation of this study is to contribute to strengthening the understanding of the role and responsibilities of the Inheritance Affairs Office within the Indonesian inheritance law system.
