<![CDATA[Village administrative services constitute an integral part of public service delivery, serving to fulfill the administrative rights of citizens. However, their implementation continues to face various challenges, including a lack of transparency in service procedures, delays in administrative processing, inconsistencies in service requirements, and the limited understanding of applicable legal provisions among village officials. These issues may create legal uncertainty, thereby reducing the effectiveness of protecting citizens' rights. This study aims to examine the role of legal certainty as an instrument for safeguarding citizens' rights in the provision of village administrative services while also analyzing the factors influencing its implementation. The study employs a normative legal research method using both the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The data consist of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, which are analyzed qualitatively through library research. The findings indicate that legal certainty in village administrative services is reflected in the implementation of clear service standards, well-defined procedures, compliance with prevailing laws and regulations, and the application of the principles of good governance. The implementation of legal certainty not only guarantees the fulfillment of citizens' administrative rights but also promotes transparency, accountability, and greater public trust in village government. Therefore, continuous efforts are required to enhance the competence of village officials, improve standard operating procedures, and strengthen supervisory mechanisms to ensure that village administrative services provide optimal legal protection for every citizen.]]>
