The Complexity of the Law in Indonesia
Indonesian Law
The Indonesian legal system is complex because it is a confluence of three distinct systems: Adat law, Dutch colonial law and national law co-exist in modern Indonesia. For example, commercial law is grounded upon the Commercial Code 1847 (Kitab UndangUndangHukum Dagang or Wetboek van Koophandel), a relic of the colonial period. Adat law is less conspicuous. However, some adat principles such as ‘consensus through decision making’ (musyawarah untuk mufakat) appear in modern Indonesian legislation (Tabalujan).
Yet if we go beyond such retrospective descriptions to consider functional categories, a convenient point of departure is the contrast between present-day Indonesian law and what can be reconstructed of law on Java in, say, the late seventeenth century. Again history raises its face in the question of terminology. What does one call the period preceding the relatively short colonial era without implying an inevitable period of European dominance? It is probably termed the same as the first year of the 30-Years War.

It is best to use a well known company to arrange your contracts, and it is not unusual to ask a second opinion about the contracts. Important issues are inheritage and marriage. A foreigner married to an Indonesian woman, needs to have a marriage contract f.i.
Procedures for Property Acquisition. All transactions of land rights must be via deeds executed before a land deed official at the local office of the Pejabat Pembuat Akta Tanah (PPAT) where the land is located and must be registered in the regional office of the National Land Agency. The PPATs are privately managed offices (usually run by a notary) authorized by the National Land Agency to handle land acquisition matters. Although there is no regulation that contracts have to be in Indonesian language, it is recommended having contracts and agreements always drawn up and executed in Bahasa Indonesia (or two languages) to prevent later arguments that the local partner did not fully understand the content.
