The rapid global spread of COVID-19 prompted the Indonesian government to declare it a national disaster and implement restrictive policies, including Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB), which significantly impacted the execution of contractual obligations. Using a normative legal research method, this study relies on statutory regulations, legal principles, and literature review to examine how force majeure is interpreted and applied in such situations. The findings reveal that many service providers were unable to fulfill their contractual duties due to government-imposed restrictions, leading to disputes with consumers who experienced financial losses.
