The background of this thesis is that land is a very basic human need. Humans live and carry out activities on land so that at all times humans are always in contact with land. It can be said that almost all human life activities, both directly and indirectly, always require land. Land is so important for human life, that everyone will always try to own and control it. With this, it can give rise to land disputes in society. Land registration is carried out according to the provisions stipulated in Government Regulation Number 24 of 1997 concerning Land Registration.

The installation of boundary markers is carried out by the applicant after obtaining the consent of the adjacent owner. The installation of boundary markers and their maintenance are the responsibility of the applicant. The legal theories used in this study are the theory of legal responsibility and the theory of legal certainty. Factors causing landowners not to install land boundary markers: lack of understanding, costs, difficulty in access, legal uncertainty, cultural and traditional factors, disagreements with other landowners, lack of socialization, technical difficulties, no proof of legal ownership, negligence or irresponsibility.
