Community Legal Protection and the Legal Position of Electronic Land Certificate in Land Registration Based on Notarial Assets

Abstract

The electronic land certificate (e-certificate) policy is supported by the presence of the Regulation of the Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Land/Head of the National Land Agency Number 1 of 2021 concerning Electronic Certificates (Permen ATR / BPN 1-2021). In the future, everyone who makes a property transaction for the first time will no longer hold a physical certificate. Everything is digital for those who have paper certificates, the government is obliged to immediately switch to electronic. Including when the process of buying and selling property assets occurs. There are indeed concerns about the birth of this new policy. The public does not fully believe in the security of the digital world. Especially for land certificates. Many parents are still conventional, lagging behind technological developments. They still believe in maintaining physical land certificates. Efficient land registration, legal certainty and legal protection, reduce the number of disputes, conflicts and court cases regarding land and increase the value of registering property in order to improve the Ease of Doing Business (EoDB) ranking. The implementation of electronic land certificates will also be gradual considering the large number of land parcels in Indonesia. Then in accordance with the very diverse geographical conditions and the socio-economic conditions of a pluralistic society. Security can also be guaranteed because the entire information security process uses encryption technology such as cryptography by the National Cyber and Crypto Agency.
