The Effectiveness of Implementing Electronic Deeds in Indonesian Notarial Practice
Abstract
This research aims to analyze the legal standing of electronic notarial deeds in Indonesia, along with their effectiveness and potential implementation in notarial practice. The study is prompted by advancements in information and communication technology, which have significantly impacted various sectors, including the legal and notarial fields. The concept of the cyber notary has emerged in response to the need for increased efficiency and effectiveness in notarial services within the digital era.This study employs a normative-empirical legal research method, utilizing statutory, conceptual, and sociological approaches. The research draws from primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources. Data collection was conducted through literature reviews, documentary studies, and field research. The acquired data were analyzed using a qualitative-deductive method, drawing conclusions from general principles to specific findings. The results indicate that the standing of a notarial deed in Indonesia as an authentic deed grants it absolute and binding evidentiary strength. The effectiveness of electronic deeds lies in their efficiency, speed, cost reduction, facilitation of digital evidence, and support for remote transactions. Pursuant to Article 1, Paragraph (1) of the Law on Notarial Positions (UUJN), a Notary is a public official authorized to create authentic deeds and exercise other powers as prescribed by law. Furthermore, electronic authentic deeds prepared by a notary enhance time and distance efficiency while supporting remote digital transactions in legal administration between notaries and their clients.
