This study aims to analyze the limitations of the regulation of arbitration under Law Number 30 of 1999 in accommodating the development of digital sharia arbitration, particularly in resolving joint marital property disputes, and to formulate normative solutions through regulatory reform. This research employs a normative legal method with statutory and conceptual approaches, using secondary data consisting of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that the regulation of arbitration under Law Number 30 of 1999 remains conventional and does not explicitly accommodate digital arbitration or sharia-based arbitration. Furthermore, there is a jurisdictional conflict between the District Court and the Religious Court regarding the enforcement of arbitration awards related to joint marital property, resulting in legal uncertainty and enforcement obstacles. Therefore, a normative reconstruction is necessary through the inclusion of provisions on digital sharia arbitration, the validity of electronic processes, and the authority of Religious Courts to enforce arbitration awards in family law matters. This study concludes that revising Law Number 30 of 1999 is essential to establish a dispute resolution system that is adaptive, integrative, and grounded in principles of justice in the digital era.
